HC Deb 30 July 1936 vol 315 cc1705-6
27. Mr. RHYS DAVIES

asked the Home Secretary whether he will cause inquiries to be made into the conditions of employment of persons engaged in cinemas which open on Sundays in order to find out whether the law and the promises made by cinema owners to Parliament when the Act was passed permitting Sunday opening are being kept?

The UNDER-SECRETARY of STATE for the HOME DEPARTMENT (Mr. Geoffrey Lloyd)

No, Sir. I have no reason to think that the relevant provisions of the Sunday Entertainments Act, 1932, are not being observed.

Mr. DAVIES

If I send the hon. Gentleman some information contrary to what he said, will he be good enough to look at it?

Mr. LLOYD

Certainly.
