HC Deb 30 May 1907 vol 175 c81
MR. CLAUDE HAY (Shoreditch, Hoxton)

I beg to ask the President of the Local Government Board when he will introduce the Unemployed Bill promised by His Majesty's Government.

The PRESIDENT of the LOCAL GOVERNMENT BOARD (Mr. John Burns, Battersea)

It was proposed last year to introduce a Bill on this subject, but, for reasons which I explained to the House, the proposal was not proceeded with. I do not contemplate the introduction of a Bill at the present time.
