HC Deb 13 March 1890 vol 342 c720
MR. HOWARD VINCENT

I beg to ask the Under Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs if ho is in a position to state who will be the delegates of the United Kingdom at the Labour Conference convened by His Imperial Majesty the German Emperor; what is the nature of their general instructions; and if they will be authorised to advocate the adaptation of the hours of Continental labour in mines and upon Sundays to the standard prevailing by custom in this country, and also to urge the adoption of factory legislation analagous to that in force in the United Kingdom?

* SIR J. FERGUSSON

I am sorry I cannot state who will be the delegates of the United Kingdom, but if the hon. Member will repeat his question tomorrow I may be in a position to do so.
