HC Deb 22 April 1969 vol 782 cc51-2W
Mr. Emery

asked the Minister of Power how many men, as a result of pit closures within the last two years, have been redeployed to other employment and other positions within the National Coal Board, respectively; and, of the latter, how many have had to move to other pits once and also on more than one occasion.
