HOURS OF LABOUR (WASHINGTON CONVENTION).

HC Deb 21 May 1924 vol 173 c2178

21. Mr. NIXON

asked the Minister of Labour when he proposes to introduce a Bill to ratify the Washington Convention concerning hours of labour?

Mr. SHAW

I am not yet in a position to indicate the precise date on which I shall introduce this Bill.

Captain BERKELEY

Why should not this Bill deal with employés in the distributing trades, and particularly in shops?

Mr. SPEAKER

That point does not arise.
