HC Deb 08 June 1932 vol 266 cc1935-6W
Lord BURGH LEY

asked the Undersecretary of State for Air by what date it is intended that the Royal Air Force acceptance park at Peterborough will be ready for use; and whether, in view of the large amount of unemployment in the district, the possibility of employing a number of local unemployed on the work involved will be considered?

special schemes, 2,985 dockers were in receipt of relief in respect of partial unemployment and 592 seamen were in receipt of full-time unemployment relief. No information is available as to the number of persons in receipt of benefit from trade union unemployment insurance funds. I have no information as to the numbers of persons in receipt of unemployment benefit or payments in Russia and the United States of America. In these two countries, there are no statutory schemes of unemployment insurance in operation.
