§ 29. Mr. Leonardasked the Minister of Labour whether he is aware that Mr. Hill, of 8, Whitehall Street, Glasgow, has been dismissed from the firm of Stones, Limited, of Buchanan Street, Glasgow, two days before his holidays, and upon the firm being made aware that he was awaiting medical examination for the purposes of the Militia; that such action has not only rendered him without employment but also lost him his holiday pay; and what action he proposes to take for this man's protection?
§ Mr. E. BrownI am making inquiries into this case and will write to the hon. Member when they are complete.
§ Mr. LeonardDoes not the right hon. Gentleman remember that incidents of this kind were anticipated on this side of the House when the Bill was under discussion; and can he say whether he expects to find ways and means of dealing expeditiously with such cases?
