HC Deb 06 March 1917 vol 91 cc219-20
71. Colonel Lord HENRY CAVENDISH-BENTINCK

asked the Secretary to the Local Government Board how many discharged soldiers have been in receipt of Poor Law relief during the last six months?

Mr. HAYES FISHER

The ordinary statistics of persons in receipt of poor relief do not show separately the previous occupations of the persons relieved, and I am afraid that I have no means of supplying my Noble Friend with the information for which he asks.
