HC Deb 03 April 1941 vol 370 c1192W
Mr. MacLaren

asked the Minister of Labour whether he will make an inquiry into the causes of explosions in oil-cake works, and take whatever measures are necessary to prevent their recurrence?

Mr. Bevin

Such explosions are inquired into by the Factory Inspectorate and the practicability of additional precautions for the future is considered in the light of the circumstances. This course is being followed in connection with the recent explosion in the North-West.
