MR. T. F. RICHARDS
(Wolverhampton, W.)
To ask the President of the Local Government Board whether he has any intention of closing the workshops now under the control of the London Central Unemployed body; and, if so, could he give the reasons why these women should be deprived of this opportunity of living until some suitable employment can be found for them.
( Answered by Mr. John Burns.) It does not rest with me to determine whether these workshops should be closed. This is a matter for the Central (Unemployed) Body, under whose control, as my hon. friend is aware, they are.
