HC Deb 23 June 1915 vol 72 cc1158-9
39. Colonel LOWTHER

asked the Minister of Munitions whether he will consider the payment of bonuses to workmen engaged in shell manufacture; and whether he will consider if the introduction of a bonus system would lead to an increase of output and rapidity of production?

Mr. LLOYD GEORGE

I will bear the hon. Member's suggestion in mind, but I am doubtful whether it can be of any general application. Proposals for accelerating the output of munitions of war are made in the Bill which I am introducing this afternoon.
