HC Deb 22 December 1937 vol 330 c1998W
Mr. Lawson

asked the Minister of Labour whether he has come to any decision on the report of the Unemployment Insurance Committee upon the draft regulations relating to institutional domestic servants?

Mr. Butler

Yes, Sir. My right hon. Friend has decided to make regulations in accordance with the recommendations which the Unemployment Insurance Statutory Committee have submitted to him upon this subject. It is expected that the regulations will bring about 170,000 persons into the general scheme of unemployment insurance. Unemployment insurance contributions will become payable in respect of these persons on 4th April next.
