Mr. TYSON WILSONasked the Financial Secretary to the War Office 2290W whether he is aware that the firm of Lewis and Sons, contractors, of Dover, who are doing work for the War Office at Shorncliffe Camp, are paying the painters employed by them on that work considerably less than the standard rate of wage; and whether he will take steps to enforce the provisions of the Fair-Wages Clause in this case?
Mr. BAKERNo representations have been received on the point, but the matter shall be inquired into.
