HOLIDAYS WITH PAY.

HC Deb 08 June 1939 vol 348 cc624-5W

Sir R. Glyn

asked the Minister of Labour whether he can state how far the holidays with pay scheme extends to the building construction trades?

Mr. E. Brown

An agreement providing for a week's holiday with pay has been concluded between trade unions and an organisation of employers in the Liverpool, Birkenhead and Wirral districts; and proposals for a scheme applicable to workers in the building industry in Scotland are at present under consideration by the Scottish National Joint Council for the Building Industry.
