asked the Minister of Health whether he will inquire as to the number of Jewish refugees in Brighton who have thrown up their work and become a charge on the Brighton rates?

I have made inquiries and I am informed that only three Jews who have come to Brighton since the outbreak of war had received relief from the Brighton public assistance authority up to yesterday morning.

Has the right hon. Gentleman seen a statement that was made in the Brighton Town Council that whole streets of Jews have thrown up their jobs and come upon the rates, and may I ask whether that is typical of the anti-Semitic, pro-Hitler propaganda in Brighton?

Can the right hon. Gentleman say how many non-Jews have applied for relief?

No, Sir. Obviously, I cannot say that without notice.
