§ MR. T. F. RICHARDS (Wolverhampton, W.)To ask the President of the Local Government Board whether he has any intention of closing the workshops now under the control of the London Central Unemployed body; and, if so, could he give the reasons why these women should be deprived of this opportunity of living until some suitable employment can be found for them.
§ (Answered by Mr. John Burns.) It does not rest with me to determine whether these workshops should be closed. This is a matter for the Central (Unemployed) Body, under whose control, as my hon. friend is aware, they are.
