§ Mr. J. Glanvilleasked the Minister of Fuel and Power if, on the next occasion his representatives visit the coalfields, invitations will be extended to local officials of the miners' unions in order that he may get a true picture of conditions at the various collieries.
Major Lloyd GeorgeMy representatives on their visits to the coalfields meet representatives both of the district Coalowners' Association and of the Mineworkers' Federation. In addition they frequently meet Pit Production Committees on which both management and workmen are represented, but it has not been the custom to invite either local officials of the Miners' Union or representatives of colliery managers and colliery owners to such meetings unless they are members of the Pit Production Committees.
