HC Deb 14 April 1938 vol 334 c1280
1. Mr. Roland Robinson

asked the Minister of Labour whether he has now received the report of the Holidays with Pay Committee; and whether he will make a statement to the House?

11. Mr. Hicks

asked the Minister of Labour when he expects to receive the report of the Holidays with Pay Committee?

The Minister of Labour (Mr. Ernest Brown)

I have just received the report of this committee which is unanimous. I hope to be able to publish the report soon after the House resumes after Easter.

Mr. Robinson

Can the Minister say when we may expect a decision by the Government on the report, and whether the report makes adequate provision for the staggering of holidays?

Mr. Brown

I cannot say that, as I have only just received the report. I assure the House that there will be no avoidable delay.

Mr. Mander

Will there be legislation before the House before the holidays?

Mr. Brown

Perhaps the hon. Member will wait and see.
