HC Deb 21 October 1968 vol 770 c233W
Mr. Will Owen

asked the Minister of Power if he will give a general direction to the National Coal Board to refrain from contaminating beaches with coal waste.

Mr. Freeson

I understand my hon. Friend's concern and am making inquiries with the N.C.B. and asking the Chairman to write to him on this matter. It is not, however, a proper subject for my right hon. Friend to make a general direction to the Board.
