HC Deb 18 May 1953 vol 515 c103W
67. Mr. Gower

asked the Minister of Fuel and Power what steps he will take to ensure that Welsh coal is used in Wales, or exported through Welsh ports.

Mr. Joynson-Hicks

The home distribution of coal is organised on a United Kingdom basis, so that consumers may be supplied with the coal most suitable to their requirements at the lowest price. Welsh coal is normally exported through Welsh ports.
