HC Deb 15 May 1935 vol 301 c1714W
Mr. SPENCER

asked the Minister of Labour the approximate cost of extending to those in receipt of unemployment benefit the same additional payments as have been made in respect of His Majesty's Jubilee to recipients of assistance?

Mr. STANLEY

About £170,000.

Mr. JOEL

asked the Parliamentary Secretary to the Board of Education whether the Board will consider advising educational authorities to print and frame the King's Jubilee message to children for prominent display on the walls of the different class rooms?

Mr. RAMSBOTHAM

My Noble Friend fully appreciates the object which the hon. Member has in mind. The matter is one which falls within the free discretion of the local education authorities, but my Noble Friend has no doubt that many schools have already acted on the suggestion, and that their example will he widely followed.
