HC Deb 14 March 1912 vol 35 cc1267-8
Viscount WOLMER

asked whether the Prime Minister proposes to introduce legislation to facilitate the settlement of industrial disputes, in order to avoid as far as possible the evils resulting from strikes; and whether his attention has been called to the Bill introduced last Session by the hon. Member for Woolwich?

Mr. McKENNA

I am aware of the Bill introduced by the hon. Member for Wool- wich; but I do not consider that legislation upon so difficult and controversial a matter would be opportune at the present moment.
