HC Deb 25 March 1929 vol 226 c2080W
Mr. DAY

asked the President of the Board of Trade whether, in view of the fact that the Regulation living space for a British seaman is only 120 cubic feet, he will consider amending legislation to increase the amount so allowed?

Mr. H. WILLIAMS

I am sending the hon. Member a copy of an answer which I gave to the hon. Member for the Royton Division (Dr. Davies) on 6th February. He will see that the question of crew space is being considered, but it is too early yet to say whether it will be necessary to propose amending legislation.
