HC Deb 17 December 1935 vol 307 cc1578-9W
Mr. GALLACHER

asked the Minister of Labour whether he can give any explanation as to why the Bristol Unemployment Assistance Board refused payment of the sum of £2 1s. 6d. to Mrs. Kay, of 64, St. Mary's Road, Shirehampton, money which was due to her husband on 4th October, 1935, on which day he died, and the husband having signed the register for the whole week with the exception of the Friday on which he died?

Mr. E. BROWN

I would refer the hon. Member to the reply given to the hon. and gallant Member for Hexham (Colonel C. Brown) on 11th December. I am informed by the board that, as indicated in that reply, certain cases including that of Mrs. Kay are under consideration.
