HC Deb 10 August 1920 vol 133 c250W
Mr. GRUNDY

asked the President of the Board of Trade, in view of the cost to many boards of guardians because of the inadequacy of payment in cases of injured workpeople, when he proposes to introduce legislation in accordance with the recommendations of the Select Committee on compensation for injuries?

Mr. SHORTT

My right hon. Friend has asked me to reply to this question. I regret I can add nothing to the answers I gave to similar questions on Thursday in last week and on the 27th of last month. Legislation will be introduced as soon as practicable, but it is not possible at present to fix a date.
