§ Mr. STEPHEN WALSHasked the Secretary to the Treasury whether he is aware that certain employés of this House, known as sessional men, have been informed that no work can be provided for them after the House adjourns until the Session is resumed in the autumn; and whether an effort will be made to provide them with work during the Recess in accordance with the implied conditions of their service?
§ Mr. HOBHOUSEThe men referred to in the question engaged only for the 2111 Session, with no other conditions of service. They will benefit by the Autumn Session, and the usual effort has been made to provide them with work during the Recess in other Departments.
