HC Deb 11 November 1948 vol 457 c1728
69. Mr. Dumpleton

asked the Secretary of State for the Home Department whether the Departmental Committee on conditions in offices has yet made any recommendations; and when its report will be published.

Mr. Younger

The Committee is considering its report, which my right hon. Friend hopes to receive before the end of the year.

Mr. Dumpleton

Is not my hon. Friend aware, quite apart from what the Departmental Committee may find, that there is abundant evidence for supervision of conditions in offices, analogous to that in factories, and will something soon be done about that matter?

Mr. Younger

It is not very long now to the end of the year, and we hope by that time to have the report.
