HC Deb 07 December 1925 vol 189 cc55-6W
Mr. MACLEAN

asked the Minister of Labour whether he can state the number of ex-service men who have been refused benefit in the three months ending 31et October on the ground that they have not proved a reasonable period of employment or that insurable work is not likely to become available?

Sir A. STEEL-MAITLAND

The statistics of refusals of unemployment benefit do not distinguish between ex-servicemen and others.
