§ 73. Mr. CLANCYasked the President of the Board of Trade whether he will state the wages paid in England and Ireland, respectively, in each of the several classes 1091 of establishments in which Government contracts are executed or grant a Return showing this information?
§ The PARLIAMENTARY SECRETARY to the MINISTRY of MUNITIONS (Mr. Kellaway)I have been asked by my right hon. Friend to reply to this question. The preparation of such a Return as that asked for by the hon. Member would require an amount of labour which in the present pressure on the Department my right hon. Friend does not feel would be justified.
