The Department of Industry's proposals are concerned with your power station development. As I told you when we met on 26 July, we are keeping closely in touch, through HM Ambassador in Peking, with the Chinese authorities about the possibility of the export of Chinese coal in exchange for the supply of UK mining equipment or other UK goods.
