§ Mr. R. Morganasked the Minister of Labour whether, in view of the serious opposition to the legitimate entertainments which are already having great difficulty in carrying on and which are a source of revenue to the State by virtue of the Entertainments Duty, he will abandon the project of providing munition workers with free entertainment at the expense of the taxpayer, particularly since arrangements are to be made to ensure them greater leisure for their own diversion?
§ Mr. BevinI cannot agree that competition with the entertainments industry is involved in these arrangements. I consider they will be a valuable contribution to the contentment, and consequently 1175W to the efficiency, of workers engaged on work of vital national importance.
