HC Deb 01 July 1925 vol 185 c2502
28. Mr. KELLY

asked the First Lord of the Admiralty what is the normal working week of men engaged in the yardcraft service, and when such normal week was fixed in accordance with the award of the industrial court?

Mr. DAVIDSON

The conditions of service of the crews of the dockyard tugs and other vessels of the yardcraft service are similar to those of other seafaring men; there is no fixed number of hours of duty to make up a normal working week, and there is no award prescribing a working week for the employees in question.
