Special Committee Factories Bill, 1954 debate -
Thursday, 3 Feb 1955

SECTION 58.

I move amendment No. 45:—

In sub-section (1), page 39, line 12, to insert " or a process is carried on which gives rise to siliceous dust or asbestos dust," before " a person ".

This amendment and amendment No. 47 are just tightening-up amendments. They do not affect the structure of the sections.

Amendment agreed to.

I move amendment No. 46:—

In sub-section (1), page 39, lines 15 and 16, to delete " other than intervals allowed in the course of a spell of continuous employment ".

As there is doubt that the prohibition on the taking of meals might not apply where workers carried on under a continuous process of shift-work, I have tabled this amendment to delete the words " other than intervals allowed in the course of a spell of continuous employment ".

Amendment agreed to.

I move amendment No. 47:—

To delete sub-section (2).

Amendment agreed to.
Section 58, as amended, agreed to.
