HC Deb 06 March 1935 vol 298 c1946
45. Mr. T. SMITH (for Mr. GRUNDY)

asked the Prime Minister whether it is the intention of the Government to take steps, in cases where the employers do not, or cannot, pay the day's wages for the Jubilee day holiday, to assist, the workpeople by payment of their wages so as to prevent hardship or privation owing to the loss of such income?

The LORD PRESIDENT of the COUNCIL (Mr. Stanley Baldwin)

No, Sir. I am afraid that the Government cannot accept this proposal.
