HC Deb 11 June 1928 vol 218 cc623-4
36. Mr. KELLY

asked the Minister of Labour whether the Courts of Referees under the Unemployment Insurance Act are operating in each of the districts throughout the country?

Mr. BETTERTON

Yes, Sir.

Mr. KELLY

Has the Department any knowledge of the number of cases that are awaiting decision or awaiting hearing by the Courts of Referees?

Mr. BETTERTON

That is an entirely different question, and I do not think it can be said to arise out of the question on the Paper. If the hon. Member wishes for information on that point, perhaps he will put a question down.
