CUSTOMS OFFICIALS (HOURS).

HC Deb 14 April 1932 vol 264 cc1007-8W

Mr. DINGLE FOOT

asked the Chancellor of the Exchequer whether, in view of the operation of the Import Duties Act, he will take steps to synchronise the hours of labour worked by Customs officials with those worked by dock, warehouse, and ship labourers?

Mr. CHAMBERLAIN

I would refer my hon. Friend to the reply given on 10th March to a similar question by the hon. Member for South Bristol (Mr. Lindsay).
