FOR HURST, DEPUTY OVERSEAS LABOUR ADVISER.
FROM PRICE, COMMISSIONER FOR LABOUR.
IN REPLY TO YOUR TELEPHONE CALL OF 1ST DECEMBER. I CONFIRM THAT PERMISSION FOR NIGHT WORK FOR WOMEN HAS BEEN GRANTED TO 16 FACTORIES, OF WHICH ONLY 14 ARE OPERATING THE SCHEME WITH A TOTAL OF 863 FEMALE EMPLOYEES. THERE HAS BEEN NO RECENT CHANGE IN CONDITIONS IMPOSED WHICH ARE STRICTLY ENFORCED BY THE LABOUR
DEPARTMENT.
THE REGISTRAR OF TRADE UNIONS CONFIRMS THAT HE HAS NEVER REFUSED AN APPLICATION UNDER SECTION 17(2) OF THE TRADE UNION ORDINANCE FOR A PERSON TO HOLD OFFICE IN MORE THAN ONE UNION. HOWEVER, DURING THIS YEAR TWO CASES WERE DISCOVERED IN WHICH PRIOR PERMISSION HAD NOT BEEN SOUGHT. THESE TWO OFFICERS WERE REQUIRED TO DIVEST THEMSELVES OF THE MOST RECENT OFFICE BUT WERE PERMITTED TO RETAIN
THE OTHER.
