1871 Act

Despite what the 1902 Britannica says, and despite WP's belief that secondary sources will be the most accurate, the 1871 Act did not remove Crown immunity for Government factories, which lasted well into the 20th century. Lord John Manners did put down an amendment to remove Crown immunity, but withdrew it before committee stage (see Hansard for 14 August 1871: LJM announces withdrawal and 15 August 1871, committee stage of Bill) Similarly, if more obscurely, the Jewish Encyclopaedia's claim that the 1870 Act allowed Sunday working by Jews is wrong; the select committee on the Bill thought something should be done, but not by the 1870 Bill. It was left to Sir David Salomans to bring in a private member's bill the next session and see it through Parliament. I have edited accordingly. Rjccumbria (talk) 18:30, 8 April 2018 (UTC)
