64. Mr. POINTERasked the First Lord of the Admiralty if Messrs. A. and P. Stevens, hoist manufacturers, Glasgow, who have the contracts for magazine hoists for His Majesty's ship "Queen Alary," do not observe the conditions of the fair contracts Clause; and whether he will cause inquiry to be made as to the conditions of work at present obtaining there?
§ The PARLIAMENTARY SECRETARY Of the BOARD of ADMIRALTY (Dr. Macnamara)No communication has been received on this subject. If particulars of the alleged infringement of the Fair-Wages Clause are furnished, I will cause inquiry to be made.
