§ Mr. William Hamiltonasked the Secretary of State for Social Services how many representations he has received concerning the classification of apprentices earning less than £4 a week as self-employed; and what reply he has sent.
§ Mr. EnnalsAbout 20 representations have been made. The replies thereto said that the position of apprentices had been carefully considered, but the difficulties of a special arrangement to keep apprentices in Class I would be greater than any advantages.
