§ Mr. DAYasked the Minister of Labour what timing arrangements have been introduced at the Walworth Road (Borough) Employment Exchange to 1227W obviate the hardship experienced by the unemployed having to stand in the public streets for a considerable time in order to obtain their unemployment pay, and has any consultation taken place between the officials of his Department for the purpose of making suitable improvements; and can be give particulars?
§ Sir A. STEEL-MAITLANDThe claimants are divided into groups, and each group is allotted a certain quarter of an hour for attendance at the Exchange. I am informed that periods of waiting beyond a quarter of an hour are in general due to claimants attending earlier than they need.
