HC Deb 01 December 1969 vol 792 c187W
55. Mr. Gardner

asked the Minister of Technology if he will refer to the National Board for Prices and Incomes the prices of smokeless solid fuels.

Mr. Harold Lever

On 18th November, the N.B.P.I. were asked to examine a proposal from the N.C.B. to raise coal prices by about 10 per cent. The price of solid smokeless fuels will doubtless be one of the considerations they will bear in mind.
