§ Sir J. GILMOURI regret that there is no prospect of any general amendment of the Factory Acts being undertaken this Session.
Viscountess ASTORDoes not the right hon. Gentleman think, considering that every Government in the last 10 years has been pledged to amend the Factory Acts, that this would be a very good work for the National Government?
