HC Deb 22 December 1925 vol 189 cc2189-90W
Lord APSLEY

asked the Minister of Health in how many cases work on houses under construction for the working class has been suspended within the last three months by reason of disputes in connection with the erection of Weir houses, or for reasons not connected with the actual wages or working conditions of the men thus striking?

Mr. CHAMBERLAIN

I have no complete information on this subject, but as far as I am aware there have been two cases in England and Wales within the last three months in which work has been suspended on the grounds stated by the Noble Lord.
