§ MR. O'GRADY (Leeds, E.)I beg to ask the First Lord of the Treasury whether it is the intention of His Majesty's Government to present a Bill to the House providing for the creation of a separate Department to deal with the problem of the unemployed; if so, whether such separate Department will be under the control of a now Minister, to be known as the Minister of Labour?
§ SIR H. CAMPBELL-BANNERMANNo, Sir. His Majesty's Government have no intention of creating a separate Department to deal with the problem of the unemployed.
§ MR. O'GRADYIs not the Premier of opinion that the Local Government Board is already overcrowded with work, and cannot be expected to deal with the question of the unemployed?
§ SIR H. CAMPBELL-BANNERMANI cannot be expected to share that opinion.
