HC Deb 24 May 1938 vol 336 c1024
33. Mr. Ritson

asked the Secretary for Mines the number of inspections made by his inspectors at Adventure Colliery, Durham; and what is the result?

Captain Crookshank

The number of inspections made by inspectors of mines at Adventure Colliery since the beginning of this year is 10. As a result of these inspections legal proceedings are to be instituted against the owners, and the manager, in respect of certain alleged contraventions of the law which have already been the subject of questions by the hon. Member. In other respects the colliery was found to be in a satisfactory condition.
