HOURS OF INDUSTRIAL EMPLOYMENT BILL.

HC Deb 05 June 1930 vol 239 c2358

11. Mr. LOWTH

asked the Minister of Labour why clerical workers are excluded from the provisions of the Hours of Industrial Employment Bill, 1930?

Miss BONDFIELD

The Bill is based on the Washington Hours Convention which, I am advised, does not require that the hours of clerical workers should be regulated by its provisions.
