HC Deb 12 March 1897 vol 47 c556
SIR CHARLES DILKE (Gloucester, Forest of Dean)

I beg to ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department whether he has received communications from the Bradford Chamber of Commerce, and from the Yorkshire Textile Workers' Federation, asking for the proposed new regulations governing wool sorting; and whether he can name a date at which the regulations will be ready?

THE SECRETARY OF STATE FOR THE HOME DEPARTMENT (Sir MATTHEW WHITE RIDLEY,) Lancashire, Blackpool

The special rules are being served upon the occupiers of factories and workshops to which they apply, and copies have also been sent to the bodies named, and others who have made application?
