Captain A. EVANSasked the Minister of Labour if he has yet come to any arrangement with the War Office whereby British labour will be employed by contractors working for the Imperial War Graves Commission?
§ Sir M. BARLOWIt is not a condition of these contracts that British labour must be employed I have been in communication with a number of contractors, including the only British firm which, so far as I know, is undertaking these contracts, offering to make arrangements with a view to supplying labour from among British ex-service men, but so far no such arrangements have been concluded.
