HC Deb 07 February 2000 vol 344 c8W
Mr. Maclean

To ask the Secretary of State for Trade and Industry what estimate he has made of(a) the cost per ton and (b) the total cost of supply in coal to retired miners from the cheapest foreign source. [107949].

Mrs. Liddell

I have not made such an estimate because I do not expect retired miners to be supplied with imported coal.
