Scope and Contents

Memorandum from Charles Masterman [Under Secretary of State, Home Office] to [WSC] concerning "Autumn work" in reply to a minute [from WSC]. Masterman draws attention to the problems of working on Departmental business from the 24 September, as the relevant officials are overworked and have already postponed their holidays. The Shops Bill will be complicated by the absence of [Malcolm] Delevigne: the Mines Bill by its intrinsic complexity and the absence of Delevigne and Liddell. Major work on the Prisons Bill will have to be done after 15 October, as [Sir Evelyn] Ruggles-Brise [Chairman of the Prison Commission] is also away. He recommends that the [Home Office] officials should not be worked too hard. Typescript with handwritten corrections, annotated by WSC "noted".
