HC Deb 24 October 1935 vol 305 c290
10. Mr. ISAAC FOOT

asked the Minister of Labour whether the communications between his department and the Herring Industry Board have now been completed; and whether he is now in a position to make any statement as to the proposal to bring share fishermen within the scope of Part I of the Unemployment Insurance Act?

Mr. E. BROWN

I regret that the collection of the necessary information is not quite completed yet, but I hope that it will be possible shortly to proceed in this matter.

Mr. FOOT

Can the right hon. Gentleman say approximately the date?

Mr. BROWN

I think I shall be able to give the date quite shortly.
