asked the Minister of Fuel and Power whether underground gasification is being at present studied in any British coalmines; and whether investigation is being made of this development in Russian coalmines.

The answer to the first part of the Question is in the negative. As regards the second part, I have so far received no detailed information about the Russian work.
