Mr. WORTHINGTON-EVANSasked whether the inquiry into the rate of wages paid at the Army Ordnance Department at Colchester, promised by the Secretary of State for War on 21st June, 1910, which was continuing on the 6th July, 1910, and still continuing on 21st February, 1911, has now been completed; and when the statement on the subject generally, which was promised on 21st February shortly and very shortly at a later date, may be expected?
§ Colonel SEELYAs I informed the House last week, I hope to be able shortly to make a general statement on the subject of the minimum rate of wages for War Department employés at out-stations. A very considerable number of stations and rates are affected, but I hope to be able to issue the statement this week.
