HC Deb 16 June 1898 vol 59 c412
MR. TENNANT

I beg to ask the President of the Board of Trade whether, in the monthly statistics of lead poisoning published in the Labour Gazette, he can classify the cases according to the trade in which the sufferer was employed?

THE PRESIDENT OF THE BOARD OF TRADE (Mr. C. T. RITCHIE,) Croydon

The monthly statements of lead-poisoning in the Labour Gazette are always classified according to the main groups of trades. I shall be glad to consider any suggestions from the honourable Member for the amendment of the classification, but the available space in the Labour Gazette is strictly limited.
