§ Mr. SHEPHERDasked the Minister of Labour whether he is aware that no shelter from the weather is now provided for persons waiting to sign on at the Darlington Employment Exchange; and whether he will issue immediate instructions for suitable arrangements to be made?
§ Mr. BETTERTONThe existing premises at Darlington are not regarded as satisfactory and provision for a new building has been made in the current Estimates. The timing system which is in operation at Exchanges obviates the need for attendance before the appointed time for signing.
