HC Deb 06 February 1929 vol 224 c1739
2. Viscount SANDON

asked the Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs whether his attention has been called to the misconception existing as a result of investigations made by the International Labour Bureau as to industrial conditions in China; and whether he will take steps to see that the British representatives notify the League of Nations as to the facts regarding British, Japanese and Chinese conditions of labour respectively?

The MINISTER of LABOUR (Sir Arthur Steel-Maitland)

I have been asked to reply. The Director of the International Labour Office has recently visited China and will, no doubt, on his return report to the Governing Body of the Office. It will then be possible to determine what, if any, action is called for on the part of the representative of His Majesty's Government on that Body.
