HC Deb 29 November 1933 vol 283 c878
56. Dr. HOWITT

asked the Minister of Transport whether his attention has been drawn to the recent fatal results consequent upon fire in a Manchester corporation omnibus; and whether he is satisfied that adequate measures for the prevention of fire are provided in public vehicles?

Mr. STANLEY

My inquiries into this case are not yet complete. In general, I think the requirements as to the construction and equipment of public service vehicles are adequate.
