HC Deb 30 October 1911 vol 30 c677W
Mr. J. WARD

asked the Under-Secretary of State for War whether he has received any complaint from the employés engaged upon the Glen Parva Barracks, Leicester, as to the rates of wages paid and the working conditions observed by the contractors for these works; whether he has made inquiries into such complaints; and what action he proposes to take in the matter?

Colonel SEELY

No such complaint has reached the War Office, but it is understood from inquiries made of the contractor that a question has arisen as to payment for walking time. The matter will be investigated.
