HC Deb 21 July 1938 vol 338 c2451W
Mr. Sutcliffe

asked the Minister of Transport to what extent the accidents arising out of motor traffic during the month of June in Lancashire compare with the rest of the country per head of the population?

Mr. Burgin

The exact information for which my hon. Friend asks is not available, but during the month of June, 1938, the number of persons killed or injured in all road accidents in Lancashire represented approximately three per ten thousand of the population of that county. The corresponding figure for the rest of Great Britain was approximately five per ten thousand.
