HC Deb 25 February 1926 vol 192 c695
66. Mr. SOMERVILLE

asked the Minister of Health whether, in view of the training for employment, here and overseas, now being provided at Claydon and elsewhere, he will consider the desirability of sanctioning outdoor relief for maintenance purposes at such training centres?

Sir K. WOOD

I am sending my hon. Friend copies of leaflets issued by the Ministry of Labour in relation to the provision of training for employment here and overseas. I am not clear in what circumstances any question of out-door relief for persons in training would arise, but I should be prepared to consider any further representations which my hon. Friend may think it desirable to make to me. I may add that the accommodation provided at Claydon and elsewhere by the Ministry of Labour is, as I am informed, already fully occupied.
