§ Order for second reading read.
§ Mr. T. EDMUND HARVEYI object.
§ Mr. C. P. TREVELYANMay I appeal to the hon Member to withdraw his objection. The Bill is approved of by both sides of the House, and I think the hon. Member is labouring to a certain extent under a misapprehension. It is, perhaps, rather felt that the result of this Bill might be a conflict between the local authorities and the labour exchanges. We have made very careful arrangements, which are also secured by the regulations issued by the Board of Trade recently, which will admit of the co-operation of local authorities with the labour exchanges.
§ Mr. T. EDMUND HARVEYIf I can have an assurance that there will be an opportunity in Committee to see that there is some arrangement for co-operation with the labour exchanges, I will not object.
Question, "That the Bill be now read a second time," put, and agreed to.
Bill committed to a Committee of the whole House.
