HC Deb 23 January 1930 vol 234 cc349-50W
Mr. D. G. SOMERVILLE

asked the Minister of Labour whether she proposes to issue any notification to all parents, irrespective of position, calling their attention to the need for insuring their children at the age of 15 under the Unemployment Insurance Act should they not be attending school?

Miss BONDFIELD

I assume that the hon. Member refers to the provisions of Clauses 1 and 14 of the Unemployment Insurance (No. 2) Bill. When those provisions become operative, the obligation to pay unemployment insurance contributions will rest with the employer, and appropriate notices will be issued for the information of the employer and all others concerned.
