HC Deb 27 October 1992 vol 212 c560W
Mr. Bayley

To ask the President of the Board of Trade what reserves of coal were estimated to be in each of British Coal's mines that were in operation in September; and how long those reserves of coal would have taken to be exhausted at the rate of extraction achieved in each mine over the last 12 months.

Mr. Eggar

The scale and potential duration of coal reserves at individual British Coal mines are matters for the corporation.
