§ 14. Mr. Hewlettasked the Minister of Labour whether and how staffs at service canteens come under the operations of the Catering Wages Board.
§ Mr. BevinI assume that my hon. Friend has in mind the Wages Board to be set up under the Wages Board (Industrial and Staff Canteen Undertakings) Order, 1944, which I recently made. The Catering Wages Commission did not contemplate that canteens carried on for the use of members of His Majesty's Forces should for the present come within the scope of the Industrial and Staff Canteens Wages Board. The Commission have still under consideration the question whether such canteens should be brought within the scope of any Wages Board which they may recommend.
