HC Deb 20 October 1954 vol 531 c178W
Mr. Steele

asked the First Lord of the Admiralty what arrears have still to be paid to workmen in the Admiralty establishments in Dunbartonshire for work undertaken under contract during 1950, 1951, 1952 and 1953 by employees in the Electrical Engineering Manager's Department.

Mr. J. P. L. Thomas

One very small sum still remains to be paid to a former employee, whose whereabouts have not been traced. I regret that there was considerable delay in making payment to 16 other employees who had left Admiralty service and steps have been taken to prevent delays of this kind in future.
