HC Deb 18 March 1925 vol 181 cc2253-4
59. Miss WILKINSON

asked the Minister of Labour whether he is aware that rota committees have refused to count stamps obtained on road work or other relief work as part of the eight, stamps required under the new Regulations; and whether he proposes to issue any instructions on the subject?

Sir A. STEEL-MAITLAND

Stamps affixed in respect of road work or other insurable relief work are valid contributions. If the hon. Member knows of any cases in which they have not been duly reckoned, and will let me know, I will have inquiry made.

Miss WILKINSON

Will the right hon. Gentleman be good enough to inform the Middlesbrough Employment Exchange of that fact?

Sir A. STEEL-MAITLAND

I should have every natural reason to believe that the Middlesbrough Exchange knew that like any other Exchange. If there is any reason to think to the contrary, perhaps the hon. Member will supply me with the facts.
