HC Deb 11 June 1979 vol 968 c69W
35. Mr. Bruce-Gardyne

asked the Secretary of State for Industry if he will rescind the ban by the previous Government on imports of Australian coal by the British Steel Corporation.

Mr. Michael Marshall

No such ban is in operation. Otherwise I have nothing to add to the reply given to my hon. Friend the Member for Bedford (Mr. Skeet) on 24 May.—[Vol. 967, c.188.]
