HC Deb 12 May 1943 vol 389 cc633-4W
Mr. Foster

asked the Minister of Fuel and Power the number of applications made to his Department by employers for a relaxation of safety measures under the Coal Mines Acts; the number agreed to; and the figures for each district in the British coalfields?

Mr. T. Smith

I think my hon. Friend has in mind orders of exemption granted under Defence Regulation 59 (2), and the information is being tabulated. If he has any particular order in mind and will let me know I will deal with that specially.
