HC Deb 03 August 1925 vol 187 c965W
Mr. W. M. ADAMSON

asked the Minister of Agriculture whether it is a condition of the grant of the sugar subsidy to sugar-beet factories that trade union rates of wages, in accordance with the Fair Wages Clause, shall be paid to workpeople employed in the factories and in their erection?

Sir H. BARNSTON

The provisions as to wages in sugar-beet factories receiving subsidy are laid down in Section 3 (1) of the British Sugar (Subsidy) Act, 1925 to which I would refer the hon. Gentleman.
