I beg to ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, if he will grant a Return of the local authorities which have made by-laws under the Employment of Children Act, 1903, and the names of those authorities which have framed regulations prohibiting street trading by girls under sixteen years of age.

I hope to issue later in the year a full Report on the working of the Act, which will include the information for which my hon. friend asks. If, however, he desires to have the particulars he mentions in advance the Return can be granted.
