HC Deb 16 December 1971 vol 828 c197W
Mr. Ashley

asked the Secretary of State for the Environment if he will list the number of accidents caused by insecure loading of lorries specifying how many people died and how many were injured in these accidents.

Mr. Eldon Griffiths

Precise figures are not available, but it is estimated that less than 0.1 per cent. of all injury accidents involve insecure loading of lorries. No information on the number of casualties is available.
