HC Deb 08 April 1971 vol 815 cc257-8W
Mr. Fernyhough

asked the Secretary of State for Employment if he will give a list of those trades and industries which allow those employed therein a holiday with pay in respect of New Year's Day; and what percentage they represent of the total workers in employment.

Mr. Dudley Smith

There are differences in practice within industries and as between different parts of the country and I regret that information on which a comprehensive reply could be based is not available.
