HC Deb 03 March 1924 vol 170 cc974-5
63. Captain TERRELL

asked the Prime Minister whether, in view of the demand for maintenance in connection with specified trades, he will consider the desirability of introducing a comprehensive system of insurance against unemployment which will make such partial measures unnecessary and which will co-ordinate the whole problem of unemployment on national lines?

The PRIME MINISTER

My right hon. Friend the Minister of Labour has stated that he hopes to introduce a Bill dealing with Unemployment Insurance at an early date. All relevant considerations will be taken into account in connection with that Bill.
