§ 31. Mr. TINKERasked the Secretary for Mines, if the committee he has set up to inquire into the overwinding accidents in mines have commenced their inquiries; and if he can state the approximate date when a report will be made?
§ The SECRETARY for MINES (Mr. Ernest Brown)The committee was only appointed on the 15th February and has already held one meeting. The hon. Member will recognise that this is a highly technical inquiry which will involve the taking of much evidence and that I cannot at present forecast the date of its conclusion.
