HC Deb 16 November 1925 vol 188 cc16-7
31. Mr. FENBY

asked the Prime Minister what decision has been arrived at as to payment of the new entrants to the Army, Navy and Air Force?

The PRIME MINISTER

The new rates of pay for new entrants to the Army, Navy and Air Force have already been published. They are to be found in Army Orders 366 and 367, Admiralty Fleet Orders 2858 and 2859 and Air Ministry Weekly Orders 604 and 605, respectively, copies of which I am sending to the hon. Member.

Major HORE-BELISHA

Is the right hon. Gentleman aware that this new system initiated by the Government of paying men who are working side by side different rates of pay is bound to produce most harmful results and would not be tolerated by any trade union?.

Forward to
