My Department is in close touch with the police throughout the country, and conferences are held from time to time, but I do not think it would be in the public interest to publish the reports furnished to me by the police.

asked the Minister of Transport how many accidents have happened on level crossings during the past five years, and in how many and which cases have the railway companies been required to erect bridges to replace level crossings during the same period?

During the five years 1929–1933, inclusive, 66 persons have been reported to have been killed and 129 injured by trains running into pedestrians, vehicles, or obstructions at public carriage road level crossings in Great Britain.

asked the Financial Secretary to the War Office what are the regulations governing the rating assessment of Territorial drill halls when they are let for outside purposes; and whether they are assessed in respect to each individual occasion upon which they are so let?

When let for non-military purposes, Territorial Army drill halls are assessed on the net receipts after deducting outgoings attributable to non-military user. With regard to the last part of the question, the normal practice is for a Territorial Army Association to furnish the rating authority with the amount of the net annual receipts from lettings.
