asked the Minister for Finance the present position relative to a wage increase claim by foremen on drainage and marine works with the Office of Public Works; if he is aware that junior employees engaged under these foremen are better paid; and if, in view of the fact that the claim was lodged some three years ago and that a commission was appointed to investigate the claim, he will indicate when a decision can be expected.
