HC Deb 10 August 1909 vol 9 cc380-1W
Mr. JAMES O'CONNOR

asked the Postmaster-General whether the fair wages clause is inserted in all contracts for erecting, altering, repairing, or extending Post Office premises; and whether his Department takes any steps to see that the clause is carried into effect?

Mr. BUXTON

In all contracts into which the Postmaster-General enters for the alteration or repair of Post Office premises the fair wage clause is inserted. Careful investigation is made into any alleged breach of the clause.
