asked the Minister of Labour whether and, if so, under what powers inspectors of the Ministry are taking action with a view to depriving unemployed persons from receiving unemployment pay if they work on their allotments during the day previous to 5 p.m., notwithstanding the fact that they have made the usual inquiries for work through the Employment Exchange?

I am not aware of any eases of the kind referred to. If the hon. Member will supply me with particulars I will make inquiry.
