HC Deb 30 April 1946 vol 422 c6W
Mr. Lennox-Boyd

asked the Minister of Fuel and Power the purpose of the revocation of the Coal Commission Appropriation to Reserve Regulations, 1943(a).

Mr. Shinwell:

The original purpose of the Regulations had already been served in that the Reserve Fund had been built up to a figure in excess of the minimum of £1,500,000 prescribed by the Coal Commission Minimum Reserve Regulations, 1943.
