HC Deb 16 February 1937 vol 320 cc981-2
28. Mr. Lennox-Boyd

asked the Secretary of State for War the names of the London boroughs which have refused to grant holidays with pay to those of their employés who join the Territorial Army?

Mr. Cooper

This information is not available.

Mr. Lennox-Boyd

Would it not be possible to take steps to acquire that very valuable information?

Mr. Cooper

I do not know that there is any point in my going to the trouble which would be involved in acquiring the information when there are no steps I can take in the matter.

Major-General Sir Alfred Knox

Surely we could bring public opinion to bear on those boroughs?
