LOSS OF S.S. "MILLPOOL."

HC Deb 13 November 1934 vol 293 cc1745-6

11. Mr. LOGAN

asked the President of the Board of Trade whether any inquiry is to be held into the loss of the s.s. "Millpool"?

Mr. RUNCIMAN

I should like in the first place to express my deep sympathy, in which I am sure the House will join, with the relatives of those lost in this disaster. An inquiry is being made into the circumstances, and upon the result of this enquiry must depend the decision whether a formal investigation can be usefully be held.

Mr. LOGAN

Can we have information at an early date?

Mr. RUNCIMAN

If the hon. Member will put down a question, say, a fortnight to-day, I will see what can be done.
