HC Deb 03 December 1919 vol 122 c421W
Mr. HARRY HOPE

asked the Home Secretary whether, in view of the harmful effect on agricultural work by the Daylight Saving Act being in operation in March and April and, later, in September, he will take steps to delay the operation of the Act until 15th April, and, again, to terminate it after 15th September?

Mr. SHORTT

In fixing the period of Summer Time for 1920 the point raised will receive consideration, and the Departments concerned will be consulted before the period is fixed.
