HC Deb 12 June 1941 vol 372 c361W
Mr. Rhys Davies

asked the Secretary of State for the Home Department whether he will consider, when conditions permit, issuing, for the 'information of those engaged in the distributive trades, a leaflet stating, in simple language, the main provisions of all the Shops Acts?

Mr. H. Morrison

There are already on sale explanatory memoranda issued by the Home Office on the Shops Act, 1934 (as amended by Part II of the Young Persons (Employment) Act, 1938) and on the Sunday Closing of Shops. It would not be practical at the present time to issue a leaflet on all the Shops Acts, but I will consider my hon. Friend's suggestion when opportunity offers.
