HC Deb 26 November 1925 vol 188 c1624W
Colonel DAY

asked the Minister of Labour what charitable or semi-charitable organisations engaged in the production of articles for sale and employing disabled men are in receipt of deficiency grants; and what is the estimated payment that will be made to each such organisation for the 12 months ending 31st March, 1926?

Sir A. STEEL-MAITLAND

The following institutions engaged in the production of articles for sale have been approved for assistance in the form of Deficiency Grant under the Scheme of Grants to Undertakings formed for the Employment of Severely Disabled Ex-Service Men:

  • Lord Roberts' Memorial Workshops for Disabled Sailors and Soldiers.
  • Enham Village Centre for Training and Settlement of Disabled Ex-Service Men.
  • Bournemouth Sailors' and Soldiers' Workshops.
  • Guild of Soldier and Sailor Broderers, London.
  • Heron Court (Disabled Men) Leather Goods Co., Ltd., Bournemouth.
  • Longton Disabled Sailors and Soldiers Cardboard Box Factory.
  • Fabric Photos, Ltd., Ashtead, Surrey.
  • Princess Louise Scottish Hospital for Limbless Sailors and Soldiers, Erskine House, Glasgow.
  • Ashtead Potters, Ltd., Ashtead, Surrey.

Payment of grant is, in each case, contingent upon the fulfilment of certain conditions. It is accordingly not possible to state how much will be paid during the 12 months ending 31st March, 1926. It is estimated, however, that the total amount payable will not exceed £11,000.
