§ 88. Major CAYZERasked the Secretary to the Admiralty whether he is aware that the twelve men employed in the supply depot, butchery department, Portsmouth, are not receiving the 12½per cent. bonus recently awarded, notwithstanding the fact that they have received all the previous awards granted, the same as the men employed at the dockyard and gun wharf; whether he will state why the discrimination has been made in this award; and whether he will issue instructions for the bonus to be paid to these men?
§ Mr. FORSTERI have been asked to answer this question. The men referred to by my hon. and gallant Friend are not entitled to the 12½per cent. advance under any order or award. Inquiry will be made into the adequacy of their present pay.
