MR. BURT (Morpeth)

asked the Secretary of State for the Home Department, Whether the Government intend to introduce a Bill this Session to amend the Mines Regulation Act?

THE SECRETARY OF STATE (Mr. MATTHEWS) (Birmingham, E.)

, in reply, said, it was the intention of the Government to introduce such a Bill very shortly. If the hon. Gentleman would permit him to say so, he should be very glad if he would allow him to communicate with him and show him the Bill before the second reading in order to receive any suggestion he might have to make.
