HC Deb 27 October 1967 vol 751 cc593-4W
Mr. Hunter

asked the Minister of Power if he will give a general direction to the National Coal Board regarding the disposal of land for the siting of new industries in areas where miners have lost jobs due to pit closures.

Mr. Marsh

No. I have no knowledge of the failure on the part of the Board to co-operate in disposing of land in their possession which would facilitate developments in a colliery closure area.
