HC Deb 17 February 1926 vol 191 c1954W
Mr. HARDIE

asked the Minister of Labour whether, when household income is being calculated where the father is dead and the mother incapacitated, he will, when some members of the family are unemployed, give consideration on account of the extra expense due to the illness of the mother?

Sir A. STEEL-MAITLAND

Yes, Sir; that is the present practice.
