HC Deb 08 June 1931 vol 253 c616
49. Mr. C. WILLIAMS

asked the Prime Minister when he will give the House a statement on the Government's policy on the report of the Royal Commission on Unemployment Insurance and on the action they propose to take?

48. Mr. BRACKEN

asked the Prime Minister whether His Majesty's Government proposes to implement the recommendations contained in the first report of the Royal Commission on Unemployment Insurance?

The PRIME MINISTER

I would refer the hon. Members to the answer which I gave to the hon. Member for Torquay (Mr. C. Williams) on Thursday last, to which I have nothing to add.

Mr. WILLIAMS

When will the Prime Minister be in a position to make an announcement, and may we assume that he naturally accepts the report of his own Royal Commission?

Lieut. - Commander KENWORTHY

Has my right hon. Friend any information as to the attitude of the Opposition towards this report?

Mr. WILLIAMS

On a point of Order. May I have an answer to my question?

Mr. SPEAKER

The right hon. Gentleman has given an answer.
