HC Deb 06 November 1930 vol 244 c1064W
Miss LEE

asked the Minister of Labour if she can give an estimate of the additional cost to the Exchequer that would be incurred by the inclusion of domestic service among the insurable occupations?

Miss BONDFIELD

No precise information is available, but it is estimated that the inclusion of domestic service among the insurable occupations would, at present rates of contribution, increase the ordinary Exchequer contribution to the Unemployment Fund by about £1,500,000 per annum.
