HC Deb 14 December 1953 vol 522 cc13-4W
77. Sir V. Raikes

asked the Minister of Fuel and Power the maximum retail price on rail or motor lorry, of the foreign coal at present being imported by the National Coal Board; and what is that of home-produced seaborne house coal of corresponding quality on rail or road at the same ports.

Mr. Joynson-Hicks

Under the arrangements made by the National Coal Board the maximum retail prices of imported house coals are the same as for English seaborne coals of comparable quality.
