NOT DISBANDED.
GOVERNMENT UNEMPLOYMENT COMMITTEE. By Telegraph—Press Association. WELLINGTON, April 10. Official denials of the report that the Unemployment Committee had disbanded were issued to-day. In a joint statement, the chairman (Mr W. D. Hunt) and Messrs T. O. Bishop and H. D. Thomson, two other members of the Committee, said: — “The published report would appear on the face of it to have emanated from the Unemployment Committee. Three members of that Committee are at present absent from Wellington, and it is extremely unlikely that any of them inspired the statement referred to. We are at a loss, therefore, to understand upon what authority it was published. It should be made clear that it does not express the views of members of the Committee, and was published without reference to ourselves. “What the three members have said sets out the position,” said the Minister of Labour (Hon. W. A. Veitch), when the matter was referred to him.
