HC Deb 26 June 1911 vol 27 c226
Mr. LEACH

asked the President of the Board of Trade if he had any official information showing whether any and, if any, how many men were at work on railways in this country at a wage that was less than £l for a full week's work; and, if so, would he make a return of the number of men thus paid and the railways employing them?

The PARLIAMENTARY SECRETARY to the BOARD of TRADE (Mr. Tennant)

An enquiry has been made by the Board of Trade into the earnings of railway servants and a report is being prepared which will give a large amount of information on the subject.
