Captain CRAIGasked for the number of Trade Boards and district trade committees established in Ireland under the Trade Boards Act, 1909, to deal with ready-made and wholesale bespoke tailoring, and the manufacture of juvenile clothing?
Mr. BUXTONRegulations under which it is proposed to establish a Trade Board for certain branches of the tailoring trade in Ireland are at present under consideration, and it is hoped that they will be laid before Parliament shortly. The establishment of district trade committees, and the number of such committees, are matters which, under the Trade Boards Act, are for the decision of the Trade Board when formed.
