HC Deb 07 November 1932 vol 270 cc34-5W
Captain NORTH

asked the Minister of Health whether any of the so-called hunger marchers are now receiving assistance from the London County Council or other local authorities in the London area; whether such assistance is to be continued indefinitely; and whether he will consider taking steps to provide for the return of these people to the districts from which they came?

Mr. SHAKESPEARE

Only two of these persons, who are in hospital, are still receiving public assistance in London. The second part of the question, therefore, does not arise.
