HC Deb 04 June 1934 vol 290 c570
49. Mr. THORNE

asked the Minister of Labour if he is now in a position to state whether the chairman, vice-chairman, and members of the Statutory Committee in connection with the Unemployment Bill have been appointed; and what salaries they are to receive?

Sir H. BETTERTON

I am not yet in a position to make a statement on these matters.

Mr. THORNE

Has the right hon. Gentleman already made up his mind as to the way he is going to receive nominations?

Sir H. BETTERTON

No, Sir. That is a matter which will have to be considered in all its bearings. The final responsibility rests with the Government.
