Mr. TYSON WILSONasked the Financial Secretary to the War Office if he is aware that the wages paid to the men employed at the Field Stores, Aldershot, are lower than the wages paid by the Aldershot Council to the labourers employed by them; and whether he will take steps with the object of raising these men's wages to at least as high as those paid by the council?
Mr. BAKERThe wages paid to labourers at the Field Stores are, so far as I am aware, in conformity with the Fair-Wages Resolution. A temporary increase of 2s. a week has been recently given to these men.
