MR. PIKE PEASEI beg to ask the President of the Board of Trade what substitute will be proposed for the £200,000 towards the unemployed which was voted in the Estimates, 1907–8, but for which no similar provision is made in the Estimates for 1908–9.
§ MR. JOHN BURNSMy right hon. friend has asked me to reply to this Question. I am not at present in a position to make any statement on this subject. If a further grant is proposed, 1086 a Supplemental Estimate will be submitted, as was done last year.
