Question to the Department for Work and Pensions:
To ask Her Majesty’s Government what are the latest figures they have of the number of fatal and serious accidents occurring in the farming industry.
These figures are published on the Health and Safety Executive’s website: http://www.hse.gov.uk/statistics/industry/agriculture/index.htm. They can also be found in the published report attached, “Health and safety in agriculture in Great Britain, 2014” on pages 6 and 7.
