HC Deb 31 March 1909 vol 3 cc325-6
Mr. SCOTT DICKSON

asked what amount had been already allocated to the Glasgow distress committee out of the grant for the relief of the unemployed for the current year; was the total amount of that grant to be allocated; and, if not, what was the amount of the balance which was not to be allocated, and how was that balance to be disposed of?

Mr. URE

Glasgow has already received' £24,200. I am informed that there is a small balance of the grant unallocated, and that it will probably be surrendered.

Mr. SCOTT DICKSON

Does the right hon. Gentleman know what the amount is?

Mr. URE

I cannot say at this moment; it depends on an allocation still to be made.
