§ 103. Mr. Awberyasked the Secretary of State for the Colonies if he is aware that the unemployment position in Malaya is growing rapidly worse; and if he will take steps to introduce an 46W unemployment insurance scheme in the Federation and Singapore similar to that which is in operation in Great Britain.
§ Mr. Lennox-BoydThere is no evidence that unemployment in Malaya is growing rapidly worse. The Governments of the Federation of Malaya and of Singapore are investigating the possibility of introducing unemployment insurance schemes.
