§ Sir RICHARD COOPERasked the Financial Secretary to the War Office what was the actual expenditure on wages in the Army Ordnance Factory in 1913–14, for which the sum of £1,265,000 was provided in the Estimates; and how many of those regularly employed were paid at a rate of less than 23s. a week, and how many of those regularly employed earned less than 23s. a week on the average, distinguishing between those who worked overtime and those who worked full time or less?
Mr. BAKERThe answer to the first part of the question is £1,239,031. As regards the second and third parts, I assume the hon. Member is not asking for details of boys' wages, and the answer to both parts, on that assumption, is none.
