Hours of Work of Women and Young Persons.

I am glad to note that Executive Council

have approved the reference to the Labour

Advisory Board of the proposed amendments to

the Factory and Industrial Undertakings

icqizlaria. Regulations

2.

While this is useful first step it will

do no more than give legislative expression

Existing to the situation which at present exists and

will not of itself bring about the general

improvement in the hours of work of women and

young persons which is the object of our policy.

I am therefore anxious that these amending unication

regulations should be introduced with the

minimum of delay and I should be grateful

for an indication of the time table which you

propose to follow, bearing in mind that these

particular proposals have already been under

consideration for more than eighteen months.

Could we for example envisage a draft of

the regulations in proper form being placed
