HC Deb 30 July 1936 vol 315 cc1713-4
53. Mr. SUTCLIFFE

asked the Home Secretary whether he can make a statement with reference to the discussions now taking place regarding cardroom dust in the cotton industry?

Mr. LLOYD

After receiving a deputation from the union and obtaining subsequently further information, I wrote to the Employers' Federation to give them an opportunity of submitting any observations as to the next step. They have now asked for a deputation to be received and arrangements for this will be made as soon as practicable.
