Part of Oral Answers to Questions — Coal Industry – in the House of Commons at 12:00 am on 5 June 1945.
Major Lloyd Georģ:
The volume of coke oven gas bled at the coke ovens in question on 8th and 9th May amounted to 3,976,000 cubic feet. The gas available from the coke ovens is partly used in the steel works of Messrs. Colvilles. Owing to VE-holidays, however, the steel furnaces of this undertaking were idle on the days mentioned, and there was no outlet for the gas for the steel works.
