§ 13. Mr. GALLACHERasked the Secretary for Mines, whether, in view of the strong feeling among the miners for the restoration of the seven-hour day and of the opportunity it will provide for increased employment, he will take steps to restore the seven-hour day with a national guaranteed minimum wage to protect the miners' wages?
§ Captain CROOKSHANKThe answer is in the negative.
§ Mr. GALLACHERArising out of that informative answer, would the Minister not consider the desirability of bringing in a Mines Bill which would give satisfaction to the miners, in view of the fact that the recent Bill had to be dropped because it gave satisfaction to nobody?
