§ 61. Mr. FREEMANasked the. Minister of Health whether, in view of the fact that an adequate living wage is not always obtained for blind people by means of piecework, it is his intention to introduce legislation to secure this result':
§ Mr. GREENWOODThe fact that the actual earnings of blind persons are not generally sufficient to provide a living wage is met by the payment of supplementary allowances in augmentation of earnings, and I do not therefore see the necessity for the legislation suggested by my hon. Friend.
§ Mr. BROCKWAYIs it the intention of the Government to assist blind persons by granting pensions?
