HC Deb 18 March 1947 vol 435 c35W
8. Mr. Osborne

asked the Minister of Labour if he will make a statement on his negotiations with the football pool promoters; how much labour he estimates would be saved by re-establishing the wartime Unity Pools; and if he will give an assurance that, in the event of the industry being moved from Liverpool to another centre, he will take powers to ensure that the firms do not take their workers with them.

Mr. Isaacs

I am not yet in a position to make a statement about these negotiations.

Major Conant

asked the Minister of Labour what arrangements have been made to transfer the football pools headquarters from Liverpool to Malvern.

Mr. Isaacs

I have no information on this matter.
