§ 49. Mr. WARDLAW-MILNEasked the Prime Minister whether he will consider the advisability of including in any Bill that provides for votes for women at 21 years of age Clauses ensuring that no person in receipt of any sort of public relief shall be entitled to vote?
§ The PRIME MINISTERAs I have repeatedly announced, it would be premature to make any statement on this subject at present. I would, however, refer my hon. Friend to the reply given on the 14th November to a question by my hon. and gallant Friend the Member for Cardiff South (Captain A. Evans), of which I am sending him a copy.
§ Mr. WARDLAW-MILNEIs the Prime Minister aware that there is probably more demand for the reform stated in the second part of this question than for that stated in the first part?
