HC Deb 24 February 1915 vol 70 c275
24. Mr. JOHN TAYLOR

asked the Home Secretary the result of his further inquiry into the circumstances connected with the death of a workman at Felling Colliery, near Gateshead, by an inrush of water through the default of the manager; and what action the Department proposes to take in the matter?

Mr. McKENNA

As I promised the other day, I am making inquiry of the Admiralty as to the circumstances in which the manager was given permission to return to civil employment. I have not yet heard from them, but as soon as I do I will communicate with my hon. Friend.
