HC Deb 06 November 1911 vol 30 cc1273-4
Mr. PETO

asked whether, in view of the necessity to all classes of the community of the maintenance of the food and fuel supply of the country, to which the smooth running of the transport services is essential, the Prime Minister will substitute for the proposed measure of Home Rule for Ireland legislation designed to settle on an equitable basis the legitimate claims of wage-earners employed in those services, and to afford the protection to non-unionists of which they are deprived by Clause 2 (1) of the Trades Disputes Act of 1906?

The PRIME MINISTER

The answer is in the negative.
