2. Mr. Logan

asked the Minister of Labour whether he is now able to state what Coronation grant to the unemployed is the Unemployment Advisory Board prepared to give?

Mr. E. Brown

It is proposed that the Unemployment Assistance Board should be authorised to make special Coronation payments of 2s. 6d., together with 1s. for each young dependent child, to all persons who are unemployed during the week ending 8th May next, and to whom a payment of an unemployment allowance becomes due either during that week or the succeeding week.
