HC Deb 20 March 1930 vol 236 c2081
35. Commander LOCKER-LAMPSON

asked the Home Secretary what regulations govern the employment of foreigners as waiters in this country; and whether restrictions as to hours apply?

Mr. CLYNES

No alien can be given leave to land in this country for the purpose of taking up employment as a waiter unless he is in possession of a permit issued by the Minister of Labour under Article 1 (3) (b) of the Aliens Order, 1920. The law in regard to hours of employment does not discriminate between aliens and British subjects.
