HC Deb 28 July 1919 vol 118 cc1805-6
41. Major PRESCOTT

asked the Minister of Health whether the Metropolitan Water Board have disregarded the suggestion of the Local Government Board as to the granting of war bonus and as to the submission of differences to arbitration and that dissatisfaction prevails amongst the higher officals of the Water Board as the result of this action; and whether he proposes to take any stops for the purpose of securing that the matter shall be referred to arbitration?

The MINISTER of HEALTH (Dr. Addison)

My Department has only just been made aware of the matter referred to in the question. I am in communication with the Metropolitan Water Board with regard to it, and will acquaint the hon. Member of the result.
