HC Deb 31 July 1935 vol 304 c2684W
Mr. THORNE

asked the Financial Secretary to the Treasury whether the Government have considered the advisability of instituting a five-day working week in all Government Departments; and if he can state whether there have been any negotiations going on between the Civil Service Whitley Council on the matter?

Mr. COOPER

I would refer the hon. Member to the reply which I gave on the 23rd July to the hon. Member for Edinburgh Central (Mr. Guy).
