HC Deb 25 May 1911 vol 26 cc586-7W
Mr. CHIOZZA MONEY

asked the President of the Board of Trade if he can see his way to issue the Blue Book [Cd. 4954] of 1909 on British and Foreign trade and industry as an annual publication, and to include in it tables showing the comparative course of wages in the four countries dealt with?

Mr. BUXTON

As was announced in the Prefatory Note to the Blue Book in question, it is intended that these returns shall be issued at periodical intervals. I doubt, however, if there is sufficient reason for incurring the expense of issuing them annually. The suggestion that information with regard to the course of wages in the four countries should be included will receive careful consideration when the next issue is in course of preparation.
