Mr. G. WHITE
asked the Minister of Labour the present rate of interest charged on the overdraft of the Unemployment Insurance Fund?
Miss BONDFIELD
The average rate of interest is a little under 5 per cent.
Mr. WHITE
Having regard to the conditions of the money market, does the right hon. Lady consider that an equitable rate?
Miss BONDFIELD
I would refer that question to the Chancellor of the Exchequer.
