§ 60. Sir KINGSLEY WOODasked the Prime Minister whether the Government have come to any decision concerning the permanent strength of Woolwich Arsenal; if not, whether, pending such decision, consideration will be given to the question of the discharges that are now taking place; and whether he can indicate what steps the Government are taking to obtain alternative work for the Arsenal?
§ Mr. BONAR LAWThe answer to the first part of the question is in the negative, but the Government are doing everything in their power to meet the special difficulties at Woolwich.
