HC Deb 07 June 1915 vol 72 cc82-3W
Sir C. KINLOCH-COOKE

asked the First Lord of the Admiralty whether he is aware that a man employed for seven days a week at the emergency hospital, Devonport, and previously employed at the Royal Naval War College for seven and a half years, has not yet received the increase of 1s. recently granted to labourers; and will he have inquiries made into the matter?

Dr. MACNAMARA

I find on inquiry that the labourers serving in the temporary emergency hospital at Devonport have not received the increase of 1s. a week granted to labourers in naval establishments as from 28th September last. The necessary instructions have been issued for the increase to be paid, antedated as from the 28th September, 1914.
