HC Deb 06 May 1925 vol 183 c934
44. Mr. BRIANT

asked the Minister of Labour how many persons in receipt of the unemployment insurance grants are on any given days of 1925 also in receipt of Poor Law relief other than medical treatment?

Sir A. STEEL-MAITLAND

Statistics are not regularly compiled in respect of claimants to benefit who are also in receipt of Poor Law relief, but the results of a special analysis made in November, 1924, in respect of 1 per cent. of the claimants to benefit at that date show that 4.7 per cent. of the male claimants and 0.3 per cent. of the female were then in receipt of Poor Law relief.
