§ 21. Mr. T. Smithasked the Home Secretary whether he is aware of the inadequacy of the provisions of the Workmen's Compensation Act; and whether any amending legislation is contemplated in the near future?
§ Mr. LloydMy right hon. Friend is aware that there are various provisions in the Act which might advantageously be reviewed. I am not at present in a position to make a statement as to the prospects of legislation.
§ Mr. SmithMay I take it that in the King's Speech there will be no mention about pending legislation on this subject?
