§ Mr. G. HIRSTasked the Secretary for Mines the number of fatal accidents and non-fatal accidents in mines and sinking shafts in Great Britain from 1st January to 30th April, 1926; and the number of fatal and non-fatal accidents in mines and sinking shafts from 1st November, 1926, to 1st March, 1927?
§ Sir P. CUNLIFFE-LISTERI will circulate the figures with the OFFICIAL REPORT. But I must point out to the hon. Member that the periods he has chosen are not comparable, because, during a substantial part of the second, work had not been generally resumed.
