HC Deb 30 April 1936 vol 311 c1079
38. Mr. LOVAT-FRASER

asked the Minister of Health whether he is aware that certain children maintained by the Surrey public assistance committee are alleged by members of the committee to be doing too much work in connection with the homes in which they live, some starting at 6 o'clock in the morning; and will he make representations to the committee with a view to stopping this?

Sir K. WOOD

My attention has not previously been called to this matter, but I am having inquiries made, and will communicate further with my hon. Friend.

Mr. EDE

Is the Minister aware that the facts in this question are incorrectly stated?

Sir K. WOOD

Perhaps the hon. Member will allow me to make inquiries.
