HC Deb 29 September 1931 vol 257 c201
33. Mr. SORENSEN

asked the Minister of Health if he will state the number of applicants from Leyton and from West Leyton who applied for relief during the past four weeks; the number granted relief; the total number of recipients of out-door relief during the last of those four weeks; and the number who were only granted indoor relief?

Mr. SIMON

The returns made to my Department relate to counties and county boroughs as a whole, and for those areas show the numbers of persons receiving poor relief on specified dates and not the number of applicants. My right hon. Friend regrets that the desired information is therefore not available.
