Tellers for the Noes :

Mr. Frank Haynes and

Mr. Allen Mckay.

Question accordingly agreed to.

Mr. Speaker-- forthwith declared the main Question, as amended, to be agreed to.

Resolved,

That this House, noting that since this Government came to power personal disposable income has increased at every level in society and that the lowest paid have had proportionately higher increases than many other groups, considers that the best way in which the Government can help the low paid is by creating the conditions for more jobs by breaking down the barriers to employment and encouraging labour market flexibility ; and welcomes the Government's decision to consult about the abolition of Wages Councils.'.
