HC Deb 30 May 1912 vol 38 c1570
Mr. O'GRADY

asked the Home Secretary whether he is aware that the Leeds watch committee have decided to take no action in enforcing the Shops Act for another three months; that the Act is in many cases being disregarded; and that the only inspector in the town, who was appointed under the 1903 Act, is absent from duty through illness, and that consequently there is no supervision at all; and whether he can take any action in the matter?

Mr. McKENNA

I have no information on the subject, but I will make inquiry.
