HC Deb 09 July 1924 vol 175 c2270W
Mr. SHORT

asked the Minister of Health whether he is aware that the Dudley Board of Guardians refuse to assist persons who have failed to qualify for unemployment benefit; whether any other boards have adopted this policy; and will he cause inquiry to be made with a view to some adjustment being made?

Mr. WHEATLEY

I am communicating with the guardians on the subject of this question, and will inform my hon. Friend of the result.
