It is not ordinarily proposed to make any exemptions in regard to employees of undertakings belonging to the Central Government except that difficulties might arise when the sphere of duty of such an employer covers more than one province and where the rates of minimum wages fixed by the different provinces may be different. For this purpose a provision has been included that the minimum wages fixed by a Provincial Government will not apply to employees in any undertaking owned by the Central Government or employees of a Federal Railway, except with the consent of the Central Government. ACT 11 OF 1948 The Minimum Wages Bill having been passed by the Legislature received its assent on 15th March, 1948. It came on the Statute Book as THE MINIMUM WAGES ACT, 1948 (11 of 1948).
