Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from National Conference on the Prevention of Destitution: Report of the Proceedings of the National Conference on the Prevention of Destitution; Held at the Caxton Hall, Westminster, on June 11th, 12th, 13th and 14th, 1912 In issuing this official report of the proceedings of the second National Conference on the Prevention of Destitution (held at the Caxton Hall, Westminster, on June 11th, 12th, 13th, and 14th, 1912) it is only necessary to state that this year´s Conference was organised on very much the same lines as those which were so successfully adopted in 1911. But although, as on the previous occasion, the Conference was divided into five Sections, the subject matter of the Sections was somewhat changed. The Public Health Section and the Education Section were retained; the Unemployment Section was extended to include Industrial Regulation; the Mental Deficiency Section and the Legal and Financial Section were omitted, and two new Sections dealing with Housing, and Crime and Inebriety respectively, were organised to take their place. The total number of delegates and members attending the Conference was 710, of whom, as in 1911, approximately half represented Public Authorities, whilst the remainder attended as the representatives of voluntary associations or in their private capacities. In this complete report of the proceedings of the Conference each Section is dealt with separately. Reports of joint meetings between two Sections are included in one Section only, and are indicated in the other Section by cross-references. With regard to the procedure followed at the meetings it should be understood that the papers, having been circulated in proof to the delegates beforehand, were in almost all cases taken as read. Each contributor of a paper was, however, allowed fifteen minutes at the beginning of the discussion in which to give a summary of the main points in his paper. These summaries are not reported.
