HC Deb 02 May 1928 vol 216 c1706
34. Mr. JOHN

asked the Minister of Labour whether he will provide statistics with regard to the Treorchy, Tonypandy, Ferndale and Mardy Exchanges, respectively, as to the number of youths under 18 years of age who have since 19th April, 1928, been deprived of their unemployment benefit as the result of the operation of the new Unemployment Act; and whether any of these youths were members of the juvenile training centres?

Mr. BETTERTON

I would refer the hon. Member to the reply given on 30th April to the hon. Member for Leith (Mr. E. Brown) with regard to the date on which statistics of disallowance of benefit under the Unemployment Insurance Act, 1927, will become available. I would suggest that the hon. Member should repeat his question about a fortnight after 14th May.
