§ Mr. T. WILLIAMSasked the Home Secretary whether he has yet reached any decision with regard to Section 9 of the Workmen's Compensation Act, 1925; and, if so, when amending legislation will be introduced?
§ Sir W. JOYNSON-HICKSI regret it has not yet been possible to reach any352W decision. The question is one of great difficulty and complexity, and calls for the most careful inquiry and examination. I am, however, as anxious as the hon. Member that it should be dealt with as expeditiously as practicable, and he may rest assured that there will be no avoidable delay.
