§ Mr. KINLEYasked the Minister of Health, for England and Wales and for 456W the seaports, including London, the number of unemployed persons who have been compelled to accept institutional relief during each of the past five years?
§ Mr. GREENWOODThe number of persons receiving institutional relief on account of unemployment is not distinguished in the returns furnished to my Department. It is probably very small.
§ Mr. KINLEYasked the Minister of Health, for England and Wales, and separately for the seaports, including London, the numbers of unemployed persons who have applied for and been granted outdoor relief during each of the past five years?
§ Mr. GREENWOODThe returns made to my Department show the number of persons receiving poor relief on specified dates, and not the number of persons who have been granted poor relief during any period. The desired information is therefore not available. Summaries of the returns made by local authorities are published quarterly by my Department.
