HC Deb 17 February 1914 vol 58 c793W
Sir RICHARD COOPER

asked the President of the Board of Trade if it is proposed to continue to issue the Returns on Railway Companies (Staff and Wages) in the unsatisfactory form in which No. 116, of 1913, and No. 293, of 1914, were issued, or whether he can see his way to prepare these Returns in future in such a form that the information may be used by Members without laborious rearrangement?

Mr. BURNS

The Railway Companies (Accounts and Returns) Act, 1911, came into force on the 1st January, 1913, and consequently the Staff and Wages Returns for 1913, and future years, will be issued in a more complete and greatly simplified form.
