HC Deb 08 March 1932 vol 262 c1629
50. Mr. PARKINSON

asked the Chancellor of the Exchequer if, when considering the disposal of the money received under the Import Duties Act, he will examine the possibility of restoring the reductions made in unemployment insurance benefits?

Mr. CHAMBERLAIN

I must deprecate all attempts to anticipate the division of a hypothetical surplus in the next Budget.

Mr. DAVID GRENFELL

Did not the right hon. Gentleman himself, in a speech in this House recently, anticipate the disposal of this surplus?

Mr. CHAMBERLAIN

No.
