HC Deb 06 May 1925 vol 183 c965W
Mr. TAYLOR

asked the Minister of Labour the number of disabled ex-service men who have received limited benefit since 1st November, 1924, because they were prevented from seeking whole-time employment by reason of their disablement?

Sir A. STEEL-MAITLAND

I am not sure that I understand the hon. Member's question, but he may have in mind Subsection (4) of Section 1 of the Unemployment Insurance Act, 1923, which provided that in the case of disabled ex service men the requirement of genuinely seeking whole-time employment might be waived This requirement is no longer operative and there are no statistics such as the hon. Member desires.
