HC Deb 03 March 1949 vol 462 c61W
Sir R. Ross

asked the Minister of Fuel and Power what is the cause of the present shortage of coal in Londonderry; and what steps he is taking to prevent a recurrence of this situation.

Mr. Robens

My right hon. Friend is responsible for the allocation of coal to Northern Ireland and no complaints have been received about this. The distribution of this coal within Northern Ireland is a matter for the Northern Ireland Ministry of Commerce.
