§ 2. Mr. LAWSONasked the Minister of Labour whether, in view of the complaints made as to the attendances of appointed persons on courts of referees and the fact that the absence of referees sometimes causes considerable inconvenience to the person appearing before the court, he will take steps to secure regularity of attendance by members of these courts?
§ Sir H. BETTERTONEvery effort is already made to secure regular attendance, and I have reason to think that there has been considerable improvement in recent years. I shall be glad to hear from the hon. Member if he has any particular area in mind.
