asked the Secretary of State for Employment what visits were paid by Wages Council inspectors to holiday camps in Great Britain during 1969 and 1970, and to which camps; and what action was taken arising from these visits.

I regret that it would not be possible to supply this information without disproportionate expenditure of staff time.I am, however, able to say that the Wages Inspectorate has observed no undue rate of infraction of the Wages Council Orders on inspecting holiday camps during the years 1969 and 1970. Such infractions as were brought to light were corrected without great difficulty.

I am always prepared to investigate individual complaints made against the wages and conditions of workers employed by holiday camps.
