§ 4. Mr. Gallacherasked the Minister of Labour how many engineering firms in Scotland employ apprentices without wages for the first two years; and whether he will make representations to these firms for the purpose of ending this practice?
§ Mr. E. BrownI am not in possession of information on the subject to which the hon. Member refers.
§ Mr. GallacherIs the right hon. Gentleman not aware that there are a number of youths employed who for the first two years get no wages at all, and that they are doing jobs for which in other industries boys receive pay? If I supply the right hon. Gentleman with information on the subject will he take some steps to stop it?
