HC Deb 21 February 1952 vol 496 c67W
140. Mr. Padley

asked the Secretary of State for the Home Department to what extent he intends to introduce legislation to amend the Shops Act in the light of the recommendations of the Gower Committee; and whether he will consult with the various interests in the distributive trades, including the trade unions.

Sir D. Maxwell Fyfe

I am not at present in a position to make any statement on this subject, except that I shall certainly consult all the interests concerned, including the trade unions, before introducing legislation.
