24. Major COLVILLE

asked the Minister of Labour what percentage the average wage of Belgian iron and steelworkers bear to the average wage of British iron and steelworkers?

Miss BONDFIELD

I would refer the hon. and gallant Member to the reply given on 5th June to a question by the hon. Member for the Hallam Division (Mr. L. Smith), of which I am sending him a copy.

Lieut.-Commander KENWORTHY

Is it not a fact that their wages are very much lower as a result of tariffs?
