Mr. PARKERasked the reason for the delay in the sanctioning by the Home Department of the employment of children by-laws proposed by the urban district council of Ilford?
§ Mr. CHURCHILLI can only refer the hon. Member to the answer which I gave to his previous question on this subject on the 10th of last month. I am still awaiting the council's reply.
Mr. PARKERIs the right hon. Gentleman aware that the council, by a majority, have again passed these by-laws?
§ Mr. CHURCHILLI will look into it. I am still waiting a reply, but I think I ought not to wait very much longer.
