MR. MACDONALD

asked the Secretary of State for the Home Department, When the Report of the Inquiry into the cause of the Haydock Explosion is likely to be laid upon the Table of the House; and, whether it will be circulated among Members?

MR. ASSHETON CROSS

, in reply, said, that the Report referred to had not yet been received; but that as soon as it was it would be laid upon the Table in due course.

MR. MACDONALD

gave Notice, that on going into Committee of Supply on an early day he should call attention to the subject, and should move a Resolution.

MR. ASSHETON CROSS

hoped that the hon. Member would not move a Resolution on the subject until he had seen the Report of the gentleman who was specially sent to investigate the question.
