HC Deb 15 November 1934 vol 293 c2119
3. Mr. BUCHANAN

asked the Minister of Labour whether Messrs. Briggs Bodies Company, London, are on the Government list of contractors; whether he is aware that the employ—s of this firm are working from 55 to 60 hours per week without any overtime rates; and whether he will make inquiry as to the possibility of reducing the hours of labour worked by this firm and, if necessary, introduce legislation to make such long hours impossible?

Mr. STANLEY

I am making certain inquiries in connection with these matters, and will write to the hon. Member as soon as possible.
