HC Deb 20 April 1915 vol 71 c169
39. Sir C. KINLOCH-COOKE

asked the Under-Secretary of State for War whether he will consider the possibility of introducing legislation that would prevent young men physically fit and within the enlistment age selling flowers about the streets of London, more particularly outside the West End hotels and restaurants?

Mr. TENNANT

Any men who correspond to the hon. Member's description might certainly find more useful occupation in His Majesty's forces, but legislation to secure this is not contemplated.
