HC Deb 05 April 1922 vol 152 cc2260-1W
Captain COOTE

asked the Minister of Labour whether he is aware that Employment Exchange officials are seeking to impose conditions of service for domestic servants; and whether this is being done under the authority of the Department?

Dr. MACNAMARA

I dealt very fully with this subject in my replies to questions during June, July and August of 1921, by the hon. Members for Finchley (Colonel Newman), Kensington (Sir W. Davison) and Dulwich (Sir F. Hall), and no change has taken place in the policy of the Department since that date I made it clear at that time that officials of Employment Exchanges did not lay down conditions of domestic service.
