HC Deb 06 March 1911 vol 22 c998W
Mr. LANSBURY

asked the Prime Minister, if he had received a number of resolutions from trade unions and kindred bodies protesting against the suggested new Poor Law order regulating outdoor relief; and if, in view of the interest shown in the subject, he would arrange that Members of this House interested in the subject may have an opportunity of discussing the order before it is issued?

The PRIME MINISTER

I have received some representations on this subject. I understand that it is not the intention of my right hon. Friend to take action on the report of the Departmental Committee at present, and that, in the meantime, he will be happy to receive and consider any suggestions which may be made to him.
