§ Mr. PENNEFATHERasked the Minister of Labour whether the Government are inquiring into the feasibility of offering inducements to employers to put in hand at once work which would involve the employment of extra hands, and by so doing would absorb men who are now drawing unemployment pay or Poor Law relief?
§ Major BOYD-CARPENTERMy right hon. Friend dealt at some length during the Debate on the Address with the Government Measures for the stimulation and development of trade with the object 2393W of absorbing persons now unemployed. I do not think that I can usefully add anything to that statement of the position.
