§ Mr. Kirbyasked the Parliamentary Secretary to the Ministry of War Transport whether his attention has been called to an inquest in Liverpool on the 24th July, 1942, on a ship's greaser who met his death by falling from a gangway leading to the ship on which he was employed; whether he has noted that a mass meeting of dock workers sent a letter to the city coroner complaining that large 719W numbers of gangways in the port are dangerous; and what steps he proposes to remedy this state of affairs?
§ Mr. Noel-BakerI have seen a Press report of the case to which my hon. Friend refers; I am making inquiries and hope to communicate with him shortly.
