HC Deb 02 August 1971 vol 822 c221W
Mr. Hardy

asked the Secretary of State for Trade and Industry how much coal was imported into each of the Common Market countries from Poland in each of the last three years for which figures are available; and what are the current prices of Polish coal on world markets, and the price paid by European Economic Community countries.

Mr. Ridley

Information on coal imports from Poland by the Common Market countries is published by the O.E.C.D. in "Statistics of Foreign Trade, Series C ", which is available in the Library. I regret that I am not able to give any information on current prices of Polish coal, for which I have no responsibility.
