HC Deb 25 May 1909 vol 5 cc1026-7
Mr. HUDSON

asked the President of the Board of Trade if an inquiry has been held into the circumstances attending the fatal accident to F. Styles, at Cardiff Rhymney Railway on 10th March last; and, if so, whether he can lay the Report of the officer who held the inquiry upon the Table of this House, seeing that the Blue Books containing such reports are so late in being issued?

Mr. CHURCHILL

An inquiry was held into the causes of this accident, and the sub-inspecting officer's Report has been received. I do not, however, think it desirable to publish the Report out of the ordinary course.

Mr. HUDSON

Is the right hon. Gentleman aware that the Report received has not been issued yet, and when may we expect it?

Mr. CHURCHILL

I will inquire into any unnecessary delay.
