HC Deb 28 March 1917 vol 92 c418
45. Mr. BYRNE

asked the Prime Minister whether he will cause independent inquiry to be made as regards the wages paid to employés in the Army Ordnance Department at Dublin with a view to an immediate advance of wages, in view of the unrest among the employés?

Mr. FORSTER

An increase of 3s. a week was given last month, and I do not think any fresh general inquiry is called for, but, as I stated on Wednesday, 21st March, in reply to questions by the hon. Member and to the right hon. Gentleman the Member for Woolwich, I am further investigating certain points.
