HC Deb 07 August 1900 vol 87 c934
MR. PHILIP STANHOPE

I beg to ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department whether he has received and considered a Report from the district inspector of mines with regard to the testing of tubs at the Hapton Colliery on 21st June.

MR. JESSE COLLINGS

The hon. Member intends, as I understand, to refer to Hapton Valley Colliery. The inspector mentions in one of his Reports, which has been before the Secretary of State, that the tubs in that colliery were tested on the 21st June. The matter forms part of the larger question into which the Secretary of State has promised to institute an inquiry.
