HC Deb 18 April 1935 vol 300 c2004W
Mr. RHYS DAVIES

asked the Minister of Labour whether he is aware that unemployed members of the Darwen Weavers, Winders, and Warpers' Association are suffering reductions of from 6d. to 2s. per week in their unemployed allowance, contrary to the undertaking that under the standstill arrangement no reductions would be made where there was no change of circumstances; and whether he will have inquiry made into this complaint with a view to the restoration of the original allowances and a return of the deductions made?

Mr. STANLEY

If the hon. Member will supply me with particulars which will make it possible to identify the cases he has in mind, I will ask the Unemployment Assistance Board to make inquiry.
