§ 12. Mr. T. Williamsasked the Secretary of State for War why no reply has been sent to the National Union of Agricultural Workers to letters dated 1st August and 16th August in connection with an accident which occurred on 13th May to one of their members; and when a reply is to be expected?
§ Mr. Hore-BelishaI have been unable to trace the letters from the particulars given, and the hon. Member has been asked for some additional information, on receipt of which I will have further inquiries made.
§ Mr. WilliamsWhile apologising to the right hon. Gentleman for not getting the information to his Department as quickly as possible, although I did write yesterday giving particulars, may I ask whether, if I put down a question next week, the right hon. Gentleman will be able to give me an answer?
§ Mr. Hore-BelishaThere is no need to apologise at all. There is no trace of the letters in the registry, but as soon as I receive particulars from the hon. Gentleman I will do my best to give him an answer.
