§ Mr. LAWSONasked the Minister of Labour what would be the cost of the 620,000 applicants for unemployment allowance if they were receiving benefit under Part 1 of the 1934 Act?
§ Mr. E. BROWNIt may be roughly estimated that the amount of unemployment benefit which the 620,000 applicants in receipt of unemployment allowances at the end of June would have received had they been eligible for benefit, would have been at the rate of £39,000,000 per annum.
