HC Deb 06 August 1896 vol 43 cc1695-6
LORD BALCARRES (Lancashire, Chorley)

I beg to ask the President of the Board of Trade if it will be possible for him to arrange that the reports of the Inquiries into the four railway accidents which have recently occurred in and near Preston can be issued before the end of the Session?

MR. RITCHIE

I am afraid that the short time available before the close of the Session will make it impossible to comply with this request, but I shall be happy to present the reports if I receive them in time. The Inquiry into the 3rd accident has not yet been held.
