HC Deb 26 March 1929 vol 226 c2271W
Mr. MARCH

asked the Minister of Labour whether his attention has been called to the opening of a so-called employment bureau by a Captain W. H. Williams at Port Talbot; whether he is aware that, as a result, a large number of men in this depressed area have registered at the bureau in the hope of obtaining employment, and have suffered disappointment; and whether he proposes taking any action in the matter?

Mr. BETTERTON

I have no information about the bureau to which the hon. Member refers, nor have I any power to control the operations of private employment agencies.
