50. Sir H. Lucas-Tooth

asked the Minister of Labour whether he is aware that the effect of the Control of Engagement Order upon employment agencies is to make it illegal for them to carry on with the greater part of their businesses; and whether in the case of old established businesses having a substantial goodwill, he is prepared to take steps to secure the award of suitable compensation.

Mr. Isaacs

No.
