HC Deb 13 November 1934 vol 293 c1768
62. Mr. PEARSON

asked the First Commissioner of Works when it is proposed to commence building a new Employment Exchange for Jarrow; and whether local labour is to be employed on the building?

The FIRST COMMISSIONER of WORKS (Mr. Ormsby-Gore)

Tenders have been invited for the erection of a new building and I propose to draw the attention of the successful tenderer to the great desirability of employing local labour as far as possible.
