Mr. PARKERasked the Secretary of State for the Home Department whether he has yet learnt the result of the negotiations between the Shipbuilding Employers' Federation and the Boilermakers' Society with regard to the question of supplying particulars to piece-workers in shipbuilding yards; and whether he will now issue a draft Order applying the provisions of Section 116 of the Factory and Workshop Act without delay?
§ Mr. GLADSTONEI am informed that the negotiations referred to have not resulted in any arrangement as to the supply of particulars being agreed upon between 2299 the parties, and I accordingly propose to issue, without further delay, a draft Order applying Section 116, with modifications, to this industry.
