HC Deb 15 February 1922 vol 150 cc990-1
28. Mr. RHYS DAVIES

asked the Minister of Labour whether he will inquire into the constitution of the management of the Incorporated Industry Unemployment Insurance Board; and whether he will take steps to see that the principle of democratic representation is applied to the management of the organisation?

Dr. MACNAMARA

The original members, who are at present in office and are to retire in rotation, were elected by the employers, and employés repre- sentatives respectively on the committee which set up the scheme. The method of appointing their successors requires the approval of the Minister of Labour and has not yet been determined.
