HC Deb 30 June 1936 vol 314 c231W
Mr. WOODS

asked the Minister of Labour whether any action was taken at the International Labour Conference to give effect to the resolution of the Indian workers' delegate asking for the appointment of an Asiatic committee with a view to organising an Asiatic Labour Conference similar to the South American Conference recently held in Chili?

Mr. E. BROWN

A resolution regarding the appointment of an Asiatic Committee was presented jointly by the Indian workers' delegate and the Japanese workers' delegate to the Twentieth Session of the International Labour Conference which was recently held and was adopted by the Conference. In accordance with the terms of the resolution, the matter will be remitted to the Governing Body of the International Labour Office for consideration.
