HC Deb 17 May 1911 vol 25 cc2006-7
Mr. HILLS

asked the Home Secretary whether any additional women factory inspectors have been appointed for two years; and, if not, in view of the need of additional inspectors, whether he will consider the advisability of making further appointments?

Mr. CHURCHILL

No additional lady inspectors have been appointed within the last two years, but that branch was largely increased three years ago. Further increase in that, as in other branches, will no doubt be necessary later on; and the subject will receive careful consideration.
