HC Deb 20 February 1902 vol 103 cc585-6
MR. GALLOWAY (Manchester, S.W.)

I beg to ask the President of the Board of Trade, whether any complaints have been made to him of partiality in the constitution and administration of the Labour Department of the Board of Trade; and, if so, what action he proposes to take in the matter.

THE PRESIDENT OF THE BOARD OF TRADE (Mr. GERALD BALFOUR, Leeds, Central)

Vague general charges of the kind referred to in the Question have been made, but they are not of a kind which call for any action.
