HC Deb 25 February 1924 vol 170 cc54-5W
Mr. E. BROWN

asked the Minister of Agriculture if he will give the Members of this House the latest returns as to the number of conciliation committees actually working in England and Wales?

Mr. BUXTON

Thirteen of the conciliation committees have wages agreements in operation at the present time, and in three cases, although no formal agreement exists, arrangements as to wages have been made through the committees' agency.
