HC Deb 11 May 1922 vol 153 c2398W
Mr. G. JONES

asked the Minister of Labour when, if at all, it is proposed to establish the Meat Trades Board which was announced by the Ministry of Labour as about to be established over 12 months ago?

Dr. MACNAMARA

As I informed the hon. and gallant Member for Bromley (Lieut.-Colonel James) yesterday, the Government contemplate introducing legislation following upon the Report of the Committee appointed under the Chairmanship of Lord Cave. In these circumstances I should propose for the present to defer proceeding with the establishment of new Boards.
