HC Deb 15 October 1940 vol 365 c604
Mr. Speaker

I have now had an opportunity of giving closer consideration to the question of the printing of Parliamentary Papers by the Stationery Office. I am glad to say that it has been found possible to give a direct alarm signal to the printers' premises, so that they will be in the same position as other factory workers. This will make it possible to bring out Parliamentary Papers without any more delay than in peace time. I may add that it would be a convenience to the printers and the Departments if Members would hand in Questions to which an answer is required after a single day's notice not later than 2.30 p.m.

Mr. Silverman

Would it be possible to convey to those concerned the appreciation which the House undoubtedly feels for the ability they have now shown to be able to work under the same conditions as other works?
