HC Deb 13 May 1908 vol 188 cc1259-60

Ordered, That a Select Committee be appointed to inquire and report whether, having regard to the conditions of service in Police Forces in the United Kingdom, it is desirable that provision should be made, by legislation or otherwise, for granting to every constable one full day off duty in seven; what, if any, alterations in the conditions of service and police administration should accompany this change; what would be the cost, and how it should be borne so as not to increase the charge on Imperial funds.

Committee accordingly nominated of: Mr. Armitage, Mr. Cochrane, Mr. Charles Duncan, Mr. Hedges, Mr. Herbert Lewis, Colonel Lockwood, Mr. Nannetti, Mr. William Priestley, and Mr. Rogers.

Ordered, That the Committee have power to send for persons, papers, and records.
