HC Deb 14 July 1938 vol 338 c1539W
Sir W. Jenkins

asked the Minister of Labour whether he will consider making a grant to the Neath Town Council and the Pontardawe Rural District Council for the purposes of carrying out essential schemes which are urgently required in the public interest in view of the large number of persons in these districts being rendered idle through no fault of their own?

Mr. E. Brown

I have no funds at my disposal out of which such a grant could be made.
