HC Deb 01 March 1965 vol 707 c175W
45. Sir Knox Cunningham

asked the hon. Member for Liverpool, Exchange, as Chairman of the Kitchen Committee, what plans her Committee has for the improvement of conditions and remuneration for the catering staff in the House of Commons.

Mrs. Braddock

The Kitchen Committee will be considering plans for the improvement of conditions and remuneration for the catering staff as part of its general review of the administration of the Refreshment Department. As I explained in my answers to Questions on 24th December last, the Committee's first task has been to examine the present financial position of the Department. A Special Report of the Committee's conclusions will be made later to the House.
