HC Deb 27 August 1889 vol 340 c599
MAJOR RESCH (Essex, S.E.)

I beg to ask the Chancellor of the Exchequer if he can now state whether the Government will next Session enlarge the reference of the Friendly Societies Committee, so as to bring within its purview the Trades Unions Acts?

MR. GOSCHEN

It is impossible for me, on behalf of the Government, to give any pledge in the matter.
