§ Miss LAWRENCEasked the Minister of Labour the number of domestic workshops in England and Wales and the approximate number of persons employed?
§ Sir W. JOYNSON-HICKSI regret I am not in a position to furnish the hon. Member with the figures desired. It has not been the practice to separate "domestic" workshops from ordinary workshops in the Factory Department registers; and it would be very difficult to do so satisfactorily as these workshops constantly change from the one class into the other, as a result of the temporary employment of outside hands.
