HC Deb 11 December 1935 vol 307 c929W
Mr. SUTCLIFFE

asked the Home Secretary whether he can now state what progress has been made by the conference of employers and employed concerning the provision of compensation for diseases of the lung caused by dust in card rooms in the cotton industry?

Mr. LLOYD

I would refer to the reply given to the hon. Member for Westhoughton (Mr. R. Davies) on the 5th instant. I am making inquiry as to how the matter now stands, and will let the hon. Member know the result.
