HC Deb 02 March 1964 vol 690 c148W
Mr. Bradley

asked the Minister of Labour how many recorded agreements exist throughout industry in respect of annual leave and Bank and public holiday entitlements how many of these provide for more than two weeks' leave and six Bank and public holidays per annum; and how many refer to salaried employees.

Mr. Godber

Information is not available about the number of collective agreements which deal with leave. It is estimated, however, that nearly 80 per cent. of employees are covered by collective agreements or statutory wages regulation orders which, amongst other things, provide for payment for annual and public holidays. About one-sixth of all manual workers are covered by agreements which provide for more than two weeks' annual holiday and six public holidays.

Information is not available about the number of salaried workers covered by agreements which provide for more than two weeks' annual holiday and six public holidays.
