HC Deb 01 December 1926 vol 200 cc1185-6
43. Mr. H. WILLIAMS

asked the Minister of Labour if he will insert in the next issue of the "Labour Gazette" statement showing the general level of wages paid to workpeople in match factories in Belgium expressed as a percentage of the general level of wages prevailing in match factories in this country?

Sir A. STEEL-MAITLAND

The information in my possession does not provide a wholly satisfactory basis for the publication of comparable statistics in the Ministry of Labour Gazette, but I shall be glad to send my hon. Friend a statement giving such particulars as are available.
