HC Deb 01 May 1899 vol 70 c961
MR. WARNER

I beg to ask the First Lord of the Treasury whether, in consequence of the serious condition of matters with reference to child labour recently disclosed, Her Majesty's Government intend to bring in any Bill or take any other steps for the protection of the many thousands of overworked children?

THE FIRST LORD OF THE TREASURY

I am not in a position to make any statement on the subject of this Question.
