HC Deb 20 December 1915 vol 77 c39
100. Mr. T. WILSON

asked the Financial Secretary to the War Office if he is aware that Messrs. Jewson and Sons, contractors, of Yarmouth, who are carrying out a hut contract for the War Office, are not paying the proper rate for overtime worked on the contract; that they threaten to discharge the men if they make any complaint; and whether he will cancel the contract held by this firm and remove it from the list of those invited to tender for War Office work?

Mr. FORSTER

No complaint of this character against this firm has been received, but inquiries are being made into the matter.
