§ Mr. Jacksonasked the Minister of Agriculture whether, when he is considering new prices for agricultural produce, he will make allowance in that price for a £2 per week minimum wage for farm workers?
§ Sir R. Dorman-SmithThe determination of the minimum rates of wages for farm workers rests solely with the Agricultural Wages Committees established under the Agricultural Wages (Regulation) Act, 1924, and I do not think it would be proper for me to prejudice the operations of these committees by giving any undertaking of the kind suggested.
