HC Deb 25 June 1980 vol 987 c176W
Mr. Cryer

asked the Secretary of State for Employment, pursuant to his reply to the hon. Member for Keighley on Wednesday 18 June, why the Health and Safety Executive is not incorporating in the instrument appointing inspectors, those powers conferred on inspectors by the relevant statutory provisions which are to be exercisable by the person appointed as it is required to do so under section 19(2) of the Health and Safety at Work etc. Act 1974.

Mr. Mayhew

I refer the hon. Member to my reply to his earlier question on 5 June 1980.—[Vol. 985, c. 843.] The warrants issued by the Health and Safety Executive fully meet the requirements of section 19(2) of the Health and Safety at Work etc. Act 1974.
