§ 59. Mr. R. YOUNGasked the Minister of Health whether stone-pounding has been abolished in all Poor Law unions; and, if not, in which unions this form of work is given to casual tramps?
Mr. CHAMBERLAINI am sending the hon. Member a list of the unions in which a task of stone-pounding was imposed in May, 1925, when the last return was made to the Department. In the great majority of cases this task was imposed only for a very small number of the cases admitted.
