HC Deb 02 July 1924 vol 175 c1350W
Mr. GROVES

asked the Minister of Labour if he will investigate the circumstances attending the refusal of unemployment insurance benefit to Miss F. Lewis, 130, Leyton Road, E.15, who was too unwell to attend the court of referees recently and acquainted the appeals officer as soon as possible, appealing for a fresh hearing; and whether he will grant a further appeal?

Mr. SHAW

Instructions for a rehearing of this case were given on the 12th June, but through some mischance failed to reach the officer to whom they were addressed. Arrangements have now been made for a further hearing to take place at the earliest possible moment.
