HC Deb 21 November 1938 vol 341 cc1351-2
78. Mr. White

asked the Minister of Labour whether he has received any report from the National Joint Council of Dock Labour on the experiment being made at the Hartlepools, requiring one attendance for signing only each day?

Mr. Lennox-Boyd

No, Sir.

Mr. White

Is it not the intention of my hon. Friend to make some inquiry as to the results of this experiment, having regard to the interest that is taken in it?

Mr. Lennox-Boyd

I quite appreciate the importance of the experiment and the interest that is taken in it. A number of communications have passed, but there has been nothing in the nature of a formal report. If and when such a report is received, I will certainly bring it to the notice of the House.
