HC Deb 02 April 1913 vol 51 c390
111. Mr. REMNANT

asked the Secretary of State for the Home Department if the members of the Metropolitan Police force are now in receipt of one day's rest in every seven?

Mr. McKENNA

The answer is in the affirmative. The new arrangements came into full operation yesterday.

Mr. REMNANT

asked what police authorities in England and Wales have now given their men one day's rest in every seven?

Mr. McKENNA

I have no information available to enable me to answer this question. Police authorities are not required to report to the Home Office when they have completed arrangements for the grant of one day's rest in seven

Mr. REMNANT

Will the right hon. Gentleman make inquiries?

Mr. McKENNA

I will be very glad to see inquiries made.
