HC Deb 01 August 1963 vol 682 c130W
58. Mr. Box

asked the Minister of Power whether, in the public interest, he will issue a general direction to the National Coal Board requiring the right of concessionary coal to employees to be withdrawn and a suitable adjustment in wage rates to be negotiated in lieu.

Mr. Wood

No, sir. This is a matter for agreement between the National Coal Board and the unions.
