HC Deb 05 November 1912 vol 43 c1027
77. Mr. LANSBURY

asked whether it is the practice of the Chief Commissioner of Police, when licensing men for service as London County Council tram-drivers and conductors, to inquire as to rates of pay and hours of labour and conditions of employment under the London County Council; and, if this is so, will the Chief Commissioner take the necessary steps to ensure that men who are licensed for service under the motor trust controlling the motor omnibuses shall receive as good conditions as to rates of pay and hours of labour as under the London County Council?

Mr. McKENNA

The answer to the first part of the question is in the negative, and consequently the second part does not arise.
