HC Deb 06 March 1929 vol 226 c390W
Mr. SHEPHERD

asked the Minister of Health the result of his inquiry into the request of the Darlington Board of Guardians to those who have received relief that they should now repay it?

Sir K. WOOD

Yes, Sir. The hon. Member would appear to have been misinformed. The guardians are not asking for repayment except from persons in employment, and are making every reasonable allowance in cases where the wages earned are low.
