AGRICULTURAL WORKERS. (Hansard, 2 February 1932)

HC Deb 02 February 1932 vol 261 c14 14

§ 18. Mr. HURD
asked the Minister of Agriculture if he can state the intention of the Government as to a separate scheme of unemployment insurance for agricultural workers?

§ Sir H. BETTERTON
I have been asked to reply. This is one of the matters before the Royal Commission on Unemployment Insurance, and I must await their report.

§ Mr. HURD
Can my right hon. Friend give any idea when he will get the report?

§ Sir H. BETTERTON
No, I cannot, but we are hoping to get it within the next six weeks or two months.
