MR. TALBOTTo ask the Secretary of State for War whether he will take steps to secure the observance of the Fair Wage Resolution in the case of the women employed at the Army Clothing Factory in altering Royal Artillery uniforms into those worn by the Militia; and whether he will state what their remuneration is.
(Answered by Mr. Secretary Brodrick) The operation referred to consists in putting on a new collar and using cord instead of braid. The payment made is 1s. 2d. This is considered a fair remuneration considering the time occupied.
