HC Deb 03 July 1907 vol 177 cc675-6
MR. CLAUDE HAY (Shoreditch, Hoxton)

To ask the Secretary of State for War whether in considering any future discharges of men in the Ordnance Factory at Woolwich he will have special regard to the number of women and children dependent upon the men it is proposed to discharge.

(Answered by Mr. Secretary Haldane.) As I have already informed the hon. Member on the 26th ultimo, in reply to a somewhat similar Question, every regard is paid, when selecting men for discharge, to all the circumstances of each man's case, including any points concerning his family he may put forward.
