HC Deb 25 October 1954 vol 531 c226W
97 and 98. Mr. Nabarro

asked the Minister of Fuel and Power (1) how much coal has been imported this year to the latest convenient date; how much more has been contracted for to arrive before the end of the year; how much of the imports are house coal and how much otherwise; and how much forms the subject of dollar expenditure and how much otherwise;

(2) whether he estimates the supplies of house-coal to be sufficient to honour the domestic allocation for the forthcoming winter.

Mr. Geoffrey Lloyd

I shall be making a full statement on the situation during the course of the debate this afternoon.
