HC Deb 04 December 1945 vol 416 c2242W
Mr. D. J. Williams

asked the Minister of Fuel and Power if he will now consider publishing the report of the American mission that visited the British coalfields last year.

Mr. Shinwell

Whatever may have been the merits of the reasons given on many occasions in the past against publication of this report, conditions have changed so much since 1944 that I am convinced that to publish copies now would not be warranted.
