66. Lord H. CAVENDISH-BENTINCK

asked the Minister of Labour whether the Government propose to ratify the Washington eight-hours' day convention; and, if so, when legislation to this effect will be introduced?

Mr. SHAW

I would refer my Noble Friend to the reply I gave to my hon. Friend the Member for Batley and Morley (Mr. Turner) on 14th February, of which I am sending him a copy. A Bill is now being prepared for the consideration of the Government.
