HC Deb 16 November 1932 vol 270 cc1116-7
17. Mr. DAVID ADAMS

asked the Secretary of State for the Colonies whether Jewish and Arab trade unionists are represented on the labour legislation commission appointed by the Government of Palestine; and, if not, whether he is prepared to urge the High Commissioner to co-opt such representatives?

Sir P. CUNLIFFE-LISTER

The Palestine Labour Legislation Committee contains non-official members representing labour. The procedure of the committee is to prepare tentative proposals and to invite criticism of these proposals from local bodies likely to be affected, including representative trade unions.
