HC Deb 27 October 1988 vol 139 cc337-8W
Dr. Thomas

To ask the Secretary of State for Defence if he will make a statement on the crash between a military Mamoth Major transporter en route to the Bullpoint Royal Navy base at Plymouth and a car on the Ilminster by-pass on 17 September.

Mr. Archie Hamilton

The road traffic accident in question is still subject to investigations under the direction of the local coroner, in the normal manner. It would be inappropriate for us to comment on the precise circumstances of the accident in advance of the coroner's inquest.
