§ 11. Captain WEDGWOOD BENNasked the Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs whether, in any negotiations with Germany, the Government have proposed among their terms that the German Government should by legislation raise the industrial standard of the German workman to a level not inferior to that prevailing in British industry?
Mr. SAMUELI have nothing to add to the answer returned on the 27th May to a similar question by the hon. and gallant Member.
§ Captain BENNDoes not the right hon. Gentleman think it would be better if, in exercising pressure on Germany, we attempted to get labour conditions improved rather than insisting on details of military armaments?
Mr. SAMUELI can add nothing to what has been said by my right hon. Friend. I express no opinions beyond the answer which he gave.
§ Captain BENNBut the answer said that the question was not opportune.
