HC Deb 01 August 1930 vol 242 cc923-4W
Mr. T. SMITH

asked the Minister of Labour if she has considered the question of making an inquiry into wages, hours, and working conditions in cinemas in London and the provinces; and whether she is now in a position to arrange for such an inquiry?

Miss BONDFIELD

As a result of inquiries which have already been made of the principal employers' and workers' organisations, I find that only a very limited amount of information is available with regard to wages and hours in this industry. I propose, therefore, to arrange for a comprehensive investigation in the near future.
