HC Deb 30 April 1952 vol 499 cc96-7W
Mr. J. T. Price

asked the Minister of Agriculture whether, in submitting an increased offer of £50 million to farmers, any subvention was included in his calculation for increased wages to farm workers.

Sir T. Dugdale

The recent award of £39 million to meet increased farm costs made no provision for any future increases in minimum rates of wages.
