HC Deb 25 May 1937 vol 324 c102
20. Mr. Foot

asked the Lord Advocate whether he has considered the Report of the Poor Persons' Representation (Scotland) Committee; and whether it is the intention of His Majesty's Government to give effect to the Committee's recommendations?

Mr. Elliot

The Report of the Poor Persons' Representation (Scotland) Committee is under examination and its recommendations will receive the careful consideration of the Government. It will be appreciated that the matter is one of some complexity, and it will be some time before conclusions can be reached.
