42. Mrs. SHAWasked the Secretary for Mines whether steps have been taken to bring to the notice of those engaged in the mining industry the booklet recently published by the Safety in Mines Research Board dealing with the problem of preventing accidents from falls of ground; and whether copies of this booklet can be made available for Members of this House?
§ Mr. E. BROWNYes, Sir, this valuable booklet has been given wide publicity by notices and lectures, and in the general and technical Press, and nearly 18,000 copies have been sold in the period of 10 weeks since the booklet was published. In response to the latter part of the question, I have arranged for a supply of copies to be available in the Vote Office.
