§ 6. Miss WILKINSONasked the Minister of Labour whether he is aware that Army reservists in the Jarrow-Hebburn area have 29s. deducted from their unemployment allowance the week they receive their quarter's Army reserve allowance; and whether he can make regulations to prevent this?
§ Lieut.-Colonel MUIRHEADI would refer the hon. Member to the reply given to the hon. Members for Blaydon (Mr. Whiteley) and Aberdeen North (Mr. Garro-Jones) on 26th March, of which I am sending the hon. Member a copy.
§ Miss WILKINSONHave the Government considered whether this practice is likely to help recruiting?
§ Lieut.-Colonel MUIRHEADThat is a question which should be addressed elsewhere.
