HC Deb 22 July 1915 vol 73 c1670W
Mr. BOOTH

asked the Home Secretary if he will institute an inquiry into the circumstances which led to verdicts of accidental death being returned at the inquests upon the bodies of Bessie Mundy, Margaret Lofty, and Alice Burnham, whose deaths were subsequently shown to have been caused by murder; and whether he can state the legal or medical qualifications of the coroners who held the inquests?

Sir J. SIMON

I must refer my hon. Friend to the reply I gave to a similar question asked by the hon. Member for the Leigh Division of Lancashire on the 14th instant.
