HC Deb 30 July 1934 vol 292 c2269
85. Captain FULLER

asked the Minister of Labour if, in view of the delay which must result before Part II. of the Unemployment Act, 1934, can be brought into operation, he will consider the desirability of giving effect to the concessions in Section 38, and especially those to disabled ex-service men, without waiting for rules and regulations affecting the whole schemes and which cannot alter the provisions of this Section?

86. Captain SPENCER

asked the Minister of Labour whether, in view of the delay in fixing the appointed day under Part II. of the Unemployment Insurance Act, 1934, he will take steps to give immediate effect to the provisions of Section 38 of that Act?

The PARLIAMENTARY SECRETARY to the MINISTRY of LABOUR (Mr. Hudson)

My right hon. Friend regrets that he has no power to do what is suggested.
