HC Deb 23 May 1916 vol 82 c1979
62. Mr. ANDERSON

asked the Minister of Munitions the amount of the allowance paid weekly to the families of the workmen deported from Glasgow by order of the Ministry of Munitions and the military authorities; the nature of the undertaking into which the workmen must enter before they can obtain employment; and whether the alternative to their entering into such an undertaking is that the workmen shall remain away from Glasgow under circumstances which deprive them of work and wages?

Dr. ADDISON

The allowances paid to the families of the men in question vary from 10s. to 15s. a week. The men are not required to sign any undertaking before obtaining employment in the towns where they now are.
