HC Deb 13 February 1919 vol 112 cc261-2
32. Mr. GILBERT

asked the Home Secretary whether it is the intention of the Government to renew the Order as regards Summer Time for this year; and, considering that the Order commenced on 24th March of last year, and in view of its success, if he proposes to fix the same dates for the Summer-Time period in which the Order is in force this year?

Mr. SHORTT

I propose to advise that an Order in Council should be made applying the Summer Time Act this year. The duration of the period is under consideration.
