§ 8. Air-Commodore Harveyasked the Parliamentary Secretary to the Ministry of Civil Aviation when he expects to publish 945 the findings of the inquiry into the Sabena air accident, which took place at Heathrow on 2nd March, 1948.
§ The Parliamentary Secretary to the Ministry of Civil Aviation (Mr. Lindgren)The investigation is still proceeding. The question of publication, when the report becomes available, is a matter for consultation with the Belgian authorities, in accordance with internationally agreed procedure.
§ Air-Commodore HarveyDoes the Parliamentary Secretary realise that the long delay in completing these reports is giving concern to pilots?
§ Mr. LindgrenYes, Sir. The investigations are rather detailed, and quite a considerable portion of them have had to take place in Belgium. They will be carried out as quickly as possible.
