HC Deb 01 March 1954 vol 524 cc72-3W
Mr. G. Roberta

asked the Minister of Housing and Local Government if he will amend Circular No. 7/54, which requests local authorities to give favourable consideration to the products of undertakings providing sheltered employment for disabled persons, so that undertakings employing persons suffering from tuberculosis, particularly the Manton Factory, Caernarvon, are specifically included.

Mr. H. Macmillan

The circular is intended to cover such undertakings as the Manton Association; but it was not possible to name every one. The association is being advised to write to local authorities who are likely to be interested in its products asking for their help as envisaged by the circular.
