HC Deb 11 February 1937 vol 320 cc554-5
17. Commander Locker-Lampson

asked the Minister of Labour whether His Majesty's Government are prepared to reconsider the salary limit for unemployment insurance; and whether lie is aware of the wide discrepancy between what the Unemployment Insurance Statutory Committee recommended and the present salary limit?

Mr. E. Brown

The question of the raising of the limit, as recommended by the Unemployment Insurance Statutory Committee, is at present under review, and I am not yet in a position to state the intentions of His Majesty's Government on the matter.
