HC Deb 03 March 1955 vol 537 cc299-300W
32. Sir R. Robinson

asked the Secretary of State for the Home Department whether he has now completed his consideration of the Report of the Bateson Committee; and whether he will introduce legislation in this Session to amend the law with regard to children.

Major Lloyd-George

Preparations for fresh legislation on the employment of children have reached an advanced stage, but I regret that I can hold out no prospect that time can be found for it this Session.
