HC Deb 06 March 1893 vol 9 c1091
MR. GROVE (West Ham, N.)

I beg to ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department whether his attention has been called to an accident which occurred last week at Liverpool Street Station, by which a man met his death by falling from a gantry not protected by a rail; and whether it is legal to erect scaffolding above a certain height without sufficient protection; and, if it is, whether he will take steps to make such a practice penal?

MR. ASQUITH

I am making inquiries into this matter, but I must ask my hon. Friend to postpone his question for a day or two.
