HC Deb 29 April 1929 vol 227 cc1301-2W
Sir N. GRATTAN-DOYLE

asked the Attorney-General in how many cases it has been necessary to institute proceed- ings under the Trade Disputes Act, 1927, and under what sections of that Act such proceedings have been taken?

The ATTORNEY-GENERAL

No proceedings either civil or criminal have been instituted by the Attorney-General or the Director of Public Prosecutions under this Act. I understand there have been prosecutions under the Conspiracy and Protection of Property Act, 1875, as amended by the Trade Disputes and Trade Unions Act, 1927, but particulars of these are not available.
