22. Sir Fergus Montgomery

To ask the Secretary of State for Employment what estimate his Department has made of the numbers of workers whose working hours would be reduced by a statutory maximum 48 hour week.

Some 2.4 million workers would be affected. The Government have no intention of introducing any such statutory controls.
