HC Deb 04 July 1918 vol 107 c1832
26. Mr. WING

asked the President of the Local Government Board the percentage of appeals from the decisions of the Westminster Local Tribunal arrived at under the chairmanship of the Rev. Harcourt Hillersdon, and how that percentage compares with the average percentage of appeals from other local tribunals?

The PARLIAMENTARY SECRETARY to the LOCAL GOVERNMENT BOARD (Mr. S. Walsh)

I find that, during the first five months of this year, the percentage of appeals from the Westminster Tribunal by or on behalf of the man was under three. The percentage of appeals from this tribunal does not appear to be exceptional.
