HC Deb 13 July 1922 vol 156 c1457
81. Sir W. de FRECE

asked the Minister of Labour whether his Department has yet evolved an exact definition of the expression necessitous area, and whether, in that case, he will state what it is?

Sir A. MOND

The answer is in the negative, but a scheme has recently been submitted on behalf of certain Poor Law authorities which is at present under consideration.
