HC Deb 22 December 1927 vol 212 cc567-8
29. Mr. BUCHANAN

asked the Minister of Transport if he has made any inquiry into the representations he has received from interested parties in Glasgow and district regarding the conditions of service of the employés of the various omnibus owners; and if he is prepared to take any action?

Colonel ASHLEY

I have no jurisdiction in matters relating to the conditions of service of the employés of motor omnibus proprietors.

Mr. BUCHANAN

Is the right hon. Gentleman aware that the conditions of service of many of these omnibus servants are worse than Trade Board conditions, and does he intend to take any action in the matter?

Colonel ASHLEY

I have no power in the matter. Any representations had better be addressed to the Minister of Labour.
