Centenary Of The Senghenydd Mining Disaster (EDM553)

Centenary Of The Senghenydd Mining Disaster

EDM number 553 in 2013-14, proposed by Wayne David on 09/10/2013.
Categorised under the topic of Coal.

That this House notes that 14 October 2013 marks the 100th anniversary of the Senghenydd Mining Disaster, the worst mining disaster in British history; pays tribute to the 439 men and boys who lost their lives in the explosion at the mine and the rescue worker who was subsequently killed; further notes that the 1913 disaster could have been avoided if the legislation passed following an explosion at the Senghenydd Colliery in 1901 had been implemented properly by the owners of the mine; and commends the work of the Aber Valley Heritage Group in organising a national memorial to those who died at Senghenydd and in other mining disasters in Britain.

This motion has been signed by a total of 53 MPs.
