5. Mr. Vaneasked the Minister of Labour the cost of publishing the periodical "Houseworker; and how many copies are printed and sold, respectively, each month.
§ Sir W. MoncktonThe periodical "Houseworker" is the official organ of the National Institute of Houseworkers and is the main source of publicity on the aims of the Institute and the progress made towards their achievement. The periodical is published every two months.
I am informed that in the year ended 31st March, 1952, the cost to the Institute after allowing for receipts from sales and advertisements was approximately £600. Four thousand copies of each issue are printed and rather more than half are sold. From the remainder a free distribution is made to representative bodies interested in women's employment.
