HC Deb 19 November 1931 vol 259 c997
18. Sir ASSHETON POWNALL

asked the Minister of Labour when it is expected that the Royal Commission on Unemployment Insurance will issue its final report?

Sir H. BETTERTON

The Royal Commission on Unemployment Insurance is still taking evidence, and I am afraid it is too early to say when its final report may be expected. I hope to get it about the end of this year, or the beginning of next year.

Mr. BUCHANAN

Will the right hon. Gentleman say if either he or his Government intend to pay the slightest attention to this report?

Sir H. BETTERTON

Yes, Sir, we do.
