HC Deb 07 March 1939 vol 344 cc1888-9
2. Mr. Kennedy

asked the Secretary for Mines whether he has considered the representations of the Mineworkers Federation, asking that the British miners' working hours should be reduced by half-an-hour per day; and whether any steps have been taken to secure regulation of output and prices by international agreement?

Captain Crookshank

I do not know what representations the hon. Member has in mind. I have received none recently. As regards the last part of the question, I cannot at present add anything to the reply that I gave to the hon. Member for Pontspool (Mr. Jenkins) on 31st January.
