§ Mr. MILLARasked the Minister of Labour whether the award of the industrial court regarding railway shopmen has now been put into operation on all the railways in Great Britain?
§ Sir M. BARLOWI understand that Award 728 of the Industrial Court regarding railway shopmen, which was issued prior to the amalgamation of the railway companies into groups, has been put into operation by the 16 companies who were parties to the Award. Since that time certain of the other companies have voluntarily put the Award into operation, whilst others have not yet done so.
