HC Deb 17 May 1938 vol 336 cc237-8W
Mr. Joel

asked the Financial Secretary to the Treasury which official publications be seen that provision has been made to ensure that children in Kenya are not employed on other than light work which they are fitted to perform. Even for this kind of work, however, under the same Ordinances to which the hon. Member has drawn attention, children cannot be recruited without a certificate from the District Officer who may withhold such a certificate for any reason deemed by him to be sufficient.
