HC Deb 01 December 1989 vol 162 c454W
Mr. Cryer

To ask the Secretary of State for Employment if he will give the average number of years between visits by factory inspectors to manufacturing premises in Yorkshire and Humberside; and if he will make a statement.

Mr. Nicholls

An average figure would not be meaningful, given the differing purposes for which visits are made, and the wide variety of manufacturing premises. The information is not therefore collected as part of the Health and Safety Executive's monitoring systems.
