HC Deb 03 March 1932 vol 262 c1252
9. Mr. KIMBALL

(for Mr. LYONS) asked the Minister of Labour what reply he gave to the deputation of the British Actors' Equity Association with reference to the engagement in this country of foreign actors and artistes; and what is his present policy in reference thereto?

Sir H. BETTERTON

I would refer my hon. Friend to the reply given on Thursday last to a similar question by the hon.

Mr. DENVILLE
