HC Deb 02 May 1932 vol 265 cc809-10
38. Mr. VYVYAN ADAMS

asked the Minister of Health the number of ex- service men who are residents in the Poor Law institutions of the public assistance committees in Yorkshire?

Mr. E. BROWN

My right hon. Friend regrets that this information is not available.

Mr. ADAMS

Whatever the numbers be, may I ask the hon. Gentleman whether he cannot devise some means whereby these ex-service men, to whom the community is under an incalculable obligation, may spend their lives in less humiliating circumstances?

Mr. BROWN

I will bring my hon. Friend's point to the notice of the Minister.
