HC Deb 06 August 1924 vol 176 cc2947-8W
Mr. T. THOMSON

asked the Minister of Labour what form the extra assistance will take which the Government have promised to give to necessitous local authorities in connection with their unemployment relief works, and under what conditions will it be granted?

Mr. WHEATLEY

I would refer my hon. Friend to the very full statements made during the Debate on the Appropriation Bill on Monday of this week by the Minister of Labour and the Parliamentary Secretary of the Ministry of Health. I have nothing to add to those statements.
