HC Deb 27 February 1924 vol 170 cc461-2
77. Mr. R. MORRISON

asked the Minister of Labour whether unemployed men who act as stewards at football matches on Saturday afternoons and receive the sum of 4s. for doing so are entitled thereby to lose one day's unemployment benefit?

Mr. SHAW

Under the provisions of the Unemployment Insurance Acts it would appear that in the circumstances mentioned, unemployment benefit would not be payable for the day in question. Should it be desired to contest a decision to this effect in any particular case an appeal should be made to the local Court of Referees.
