HC Deb 22 May 1930 vol 239 cc598-9W
Mr. DAY

asked the Under-Secretary of State for the Colonies the latest information he has with regard to the Malay States Workmen's Compensation Bill?

Dr. SHIELS

The Bill was passed in the Federal Council on 30th January, 1929, but was not to come into force until a date to be notified in the Federated Malay States Gazette. So far as my Noble Friend is aware, no such notification has yet been published, and inquiry will be made as to when the law will be brought into operation.
