Mr. BANFIELD (for Mr. THORNE)asked the Home Secretary whether he has received a report from the factory inspector in connection with the death of a leather finisher which occurred at his place of employment in Abbey Street, Bermondsey; whether the firm in question were warned by the factory inspector that the machinery in question was inadequately protected; and if he has received a report from the coroner about the matter?
§ Sir J. GILMOURI have received a report from the factory inspector, and am considering what action should be taken. The answer to the second and third parts of the question is in the negative.
