HC Deb 19 May 1909 vol 5 cc525-6

Order for Second Reading read.

Objection taken to further proceeding.

Mr. BOWERMAN

May I appeal to the hon. Member to withdraw his opposition? The Bill is simply intended to prevent working men and women from being kept an hour in the streets in the morning.

Sir FREDERICK BANBURY

The railway shareholders will have to pay for it. If the hon. Gentleman wishes to secure his object he had better get the trades unions to pay for it. I object.

Second reading accordingly deferred.
