(а) There were no names and addresses of outworkers received in respect to the following classes of work:
sacks, basket making, mats other than wire nets, racquet and tennis balls, stuffed toys, file making, electro plate, cables
and chains, anchors and grapnels, cart gear, locks, latches and keys, pea picking, household linen, lace, lace curtains and
nets, curtains and furniture hangings, brass and brass articles, tents, feather sorting, and carding, &c., of buttons.
(б) The figures in columns 2, 3 and 4 are the total number of lists received from employers who sent them both
for February and August, and of the entries of names of outworkers in those lists. They are therefore double the
number of employers and approximately double the number of individual outworkers whose names are given, since in the
February and August lists of the same employers, the same outworker's name will often be repeated.
(r) There were no prosecutions, but letters were sent to employers in 35 instances of failure to send lists of
outworkers employed in making wearing apparel, &c., in 26 instances for similar failures in respect to paper bag and box
making, in 3 instances in respect to artificial flowers, 2 in respect to furriers and 1 in respect to cabinet making.
