HC Deb 26 April 1910 vol 17 cc241-2
Mr. STEEL-MAITLAND

asked the Chancellor of the Exchequer whether, in the event of the Police (Weekly Rest-Day) Bill passing into law, he would consider the advisability of a Grant in Aid to local authorities adopting the provisions of the Act of a sum equivalent to one-half of the additional expenditure so caused?

The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER (Mr. Lloyd-George)

I have nothing to add to the answer given by my hon. Friend the Under-Secretary to the Home Office on the 5th instant in reply to a similar question by my hon. Friend the Member for North Salford.
