HC Deb 24 July 1929 vol 230 c1337W
Sir S. SANDEMAN

asked the Minister of Health in what countries is it customary to work the three-shift system in the cotton trade?

Mr. LAWSON

I have been asked to reply. So far as I am aware, the only country in which a three-shift system of working in the cotton industry has been adopted to any appreciable extent is Russia, where this system has been introduced, during the past two years, in certain selected undertakings.
