§ 31. Mr. W. J. Brownasked the Minister of National Insurance on what ground his Department has ruled that where a member of a union in a closed shop leaves the union, and is discharged by the management, he does not qualify for unemployment benefit.
§ Mr. J. GriffithsSuch a question would be decided by the statutory authorities under the Unemployment Insurance Act and not by me. I have been unable to trace any decision of the nature referred to but if the hon. Member will give me particulars I will make inquiry.
