HC Deb 18 March 1969 vol 780 cc49-50W
47. Mr. Milne

asked the Minister of Power if he will introduce legislation to enable compensation in cases of mining subsidence to be paid to occupiers of property in regard to household effects and related matters.

Mr. Freeson

No, but I have examined this problem carefully and consulted the N.C.B., which has made arrangements at local level to ensure that all cases of special hardship are sympathetically considered.
