§ Mr. Bulmerasked the Secretary of Slate for Energy when he will publish that part of the National Coal Board's corporate plan which relates to future employment.
§ Mr. EadieThere are no plans to do so. The board's manpower requirements were discussed in the final report of the Coal Industry Examination published in 1974 and in "Coal for the Future" published in 1976. More recently, the NCB contributed to Energy Commission Paper Number 18—" Manpower Requirements 589W of the Energy Industries" and I would refer the hon. Member to pages 19 to 22 of that document, a copy of which is in the Library of the House.
