HC Deb 01 April 1985 vol 76 c460W
27. Mr. Peter Bruinvels

asked the Secretary of State for Energy how many miners have taken early retirement since the ending of the miner's dispute; how many left during the dispute; and if he will express each figure as a percentage of the current total work force in the industry.

Mr. David Hunt

These are matters for the National Coal Board, and I will ask the chairman to write to my hon. Friend.
