HC Deb 10 May 1923 vol 163 c2603W
Mr. ALLEN PARKINSON

asked the Minister of Labour if he will have inquiries made into the case of Patrick Traynor, 41, Lorne Street, Wigan, who made a claim for unemployment benefit in June, 1920, which was refused on account of his unemployment book for 1919–20 being lost; and, seeing that this has now been recovered and proof has been furnished that he applied for benefit in June, 1920, will he have this case reopened with a view to this man being paid the benefits to which he was entitled?

Sir M. BARLOW

I am making inquiries locally, and will communicate the result to the hon. Member.
