HC Deb 16 July 1931 vol 255 c751
25. Mr. GRAHAM WHITE

asked the Home Secretary the number of cases of lead poisoning notified during 1930 under the regulations of the Lead Paint Act and the number of cases which terminated fatally?

Mr. CLYNES

The number of cases notified during 1930 was 66. Thirteen of these cases terminated fatally.

Mr. WHITE

Is the right hon. Gentleman satisfied that these regulations are working satisfactorily?

Mr. CLYNES

I have no reason to doubt that on the whole they are, but I shall be glad to receive information of particular instances where they are not.
