HC Deb 08 April 1935 vol 300 cc817-8W
Mr. THORNE

asked the Financial Secretary to the Treasury the number of employers that have been struck off the Government's list of contractors for not observing the Fair Wages Clause of the House of Commons and for not carrying out the awards of the various joint industrial councils?

Mr. COOPER

Since 1st April, 1934, two firms have been struck off the lists of Government contractors for nonobservance of the Fair Wages Clause; but in neither case did any question arise of a wages agreement of a joint industrial council.
