HC Deb 23 March 1911 vol 23 c776W
Mr. DEVLIN

asked the Home Secretary whether, after the passage of the Parliament Bill, he would consider the advisability of introducing a Bill dealing with the hours of work of women and children in mills and factories, or whether he would be prepared to support such a Bill if introduced by a private Member?

Mr. CHURCHILL

The hours of work of women and children in factories are already closely regulated by the Factory Act. Perhaps the hon. Member would inform me later what particular amendments to that Act he desires.
