HC Deb 01 November 1934 vol 293 c340
24. Mr. BANFIELD

asked the Home Secretary whether he is aware of the spread of Sunday baking and delivery of bread in London and elsewhere; and whether he will cause inquiries to be made as to the extent of this practice, which is causing great concern to both employers and workmen?

Sir J. GILMOUR

I have received representations on the subject of the baking and delivery of bread on Sundays in the London area. If the hon. Member has evidence of any general extension of this practice, I shall be prepared to consider it, but he will appreciate that I have no statutory powers on the matter.
