HC Deb 17 January 1924 vol 169 c284W
Sir E. HUME-WILLIAMS

asked the Primo Minister whether any funds remain from public subscriptions made during the last 10 years in relief of those suffering from colliery disasters; if he can state where such funds are invested and to what total they amount; and whether steps can be taken so that in the future any surplus remaining from such subscriptions should he devoted to the relief of sufferers from such accidents as may recur?

Lieut.-Colonel LANE-FOX

I have been asked to reply. I regret that I am not in possession of the information asked for in the first and second parts of the question; nor have I any power to act as suggested in the third part.
