HC Deb 24 July 1930 vol 241 cc2379-80
16. Mr. KIRKWOOD

asked the Home Secretary if his attention has been called to a complaint by the Amalgamated Engineering Union that employers are prevailing upon members of the union to work machines during overtime without another person being in attendance; and whether he will take steps to make it an offence to employ a person in any workshop where machinery is in motion without another person being in attendance?

Mr. CLYNES

I have no knowledge of any such complaint. If my hon. Friend will furnish me with the information on which his question is based, I shall be glad to consider it and make any necessary inquiry.
