§ Mr. E. Smithasked the Minister of Labour whether he is aware that applicants for unemployment benefit are often informed that they are a number of stamps short for benefit; that the applicants have no means of checking their position; and will he arrange for a record card to be kept at the Employment Exchange, or by the insured contributor?
§ Mr. E. BrownIn present circumstances it would be impossible to provide claimants with a complete record of their contribution position under the Unemployment Insurance Acts, but I am not aware that any hardship arises from this course. If the hon. Member will let me have particulars of any specific case he has in mind, I shall be happy to look into it.
