§ 15. Sir E. CORNWALLasked the Minister of Munitions whether his attention has been drawn to the loss by fire at Park Royal and the number of motor ambulances and cars destroyed; whether he has any information as to other munitions and equipment for war having been destroyed by fire; whether he has any information as to alien enemies having been responsible for these outbreaks; and what steps he proposes to take to ensure the safety of all munitions and equipment over which he has now responsibility?
§ Sir J. SIMONI understand that no War Office motor ambulances or cars were destroyed, but a number of horse ambulances and Red Cross motor ambulance bodies were burnt. Inquiry has been made as to the cause of the fire, and the police are satisfied from the evidence available that it was purely accidental.
