Applicant For Benefit, Wrexham (Questions)

Mr. JOHN
asked the Minister of Labour whether his attention has been  directed to a reference in the Press to the questions put by a member of the Wrexham Unemployed Advisory Committee when considering the case of an applicant for unemployed benefit; and whether, in view of the impropriety of a question as to whether the applicant, an ex-service man, ought to do without children when unemployed, he will take the necessary steps to prevent a repetition of such occurrences?

Dr. MACNAMARA
I am making inquiry, and will let my hon. Friend know the result as soon as possible.
