Message from Mr. Greenhalgh

He has received a communication from Hong Kong Mr. Bunda Pang (?) about the meeting of the Labour Advisory Board. The unions were very firm about the reduction of hours to an 8 hour day/48 hour week for women and young persons. Employers were against the reduction because they think it will put Hong Kong products in an

The

unfavourable market with goods from Korea and Japan. The Commissioner of Labour assured members of the LAB that he would put the views expressed to the Governor when submitting the amending Labour legislat- ion.
