Oral Answers to Questions — Safeguarding of Industries Act. – in the House of Commons at on 20 March 1922.
asked the President of the Board of Trade if he is now in a position to state the action which the Government propose to take to bring into operation Part II of the Safeguarding of Industries Act in regard to industries where the Reports of the Committees have been received?
This matter is still under consideration.
When does the right hon. Gentleman think he will be able to give an answer to this question?
I said, in reply to a question the other day, very shortly, and I still hope very shortly.
Will that be before Easter?
Oh, yes; certainly.
