HC Deb 03 March 1924 vol 170 c1000W
Mr. F. GOULD

asked the Minister of Labour whether any representation has been made to his Department with regard to the inclusion of agricultural workers under the Unemployment Insurance Act; and if he can now state the Government's intention respecting the same?

Mr. SHAW

No request for inclusion in the Unemployment Insurance Scheme has been made to me by any organisation representative of the agricultural industry. I am, however, considering the matter in consultation with my right hon. Friend the Minister of Agriculture.
