HC Deb 09 July 1920 vol 131 c1875

In determining whether outdoor relief shall or shall not be granted to a person in receipt of or entitled to receive unemployment benefit or benefit under a special or supplementary scheme, the authority having power to grant the relief shall not take into account any such benefit except in so far as it exceeds seven shillings and sixpence a week.

Mr. TYSON WILSON

I beg to move, to leave out the words "seven shillings and sixpence" and to insert instead thereof the words "ten shillings."

Mr. W. GRAHAM

I beg to second the Amendment.

Dr. MACNAMARA

I accept.

Amendment agreed to.
