HC Deb 24 October 1966 vol 734 cc97-8W
54. Mr. Mayhew

asked the Minister of Labour for what reason employees of Associated Motorcycle Company, Plum-stead, S.E.18, who were discharged eight weeks ago have not yet received their entitlement under the Redundancy Act, whereas employees discharged one week ago have received their entitlement.

Mrs. Shirley Williams

By the time the Fund's responsibility was established, the employees in question were no longer available at the firm, and it took time to get the necessary information. It has now been obtained, and postal drafts were sent to the employees concerned on 20th October.
