HC Deb 28 February 1929 vol 225 cc2163-4
13. Sir HARRY BRITTAIN

asked the Home Secretary whether in view of the increase in the electorate, he has taken steps to satisfy himself that returning officers are making adequate provision at polling booths for the greater number of voters at the next General Election?

Sir W. JOYNSON-HICKS

Yes, Sir, the attention of the local authorities and the Returning Officers has been specially drawn to the matter and I have good reason to believe that the Returning Officers are fully alive to their responsibilities.
