HC Deb 05 December 1935 vol 307 c316W
Mr. T. SMITH

asked the Secretary for Mines what steps he proposes to take to expedite the ratification of the Geneva convention on working hours in coal mines?

Captain CROOKSHANK

His Majesty's Government's readiness to ratify this Convention at the same time as the other six countries named in the text has already been announced. I am afraid that I cannot add anything further at present.
