Oral Answers to Questions — Unemployment. – in the House of Commons am ar 16 Gorffennaf 1925.
Mr Alexander Livingstone
, Ross and Cromarty
asked the Chancellor of the Exchequer what charges will fall on the Budget of 1926-27 in respect of the Exchequer contribution to unemployment insurance?
Mr Winston Churchill
, Epping
The estimated Exchequer contribution to the Unemployment Fund for the current year is £13,105,000. The additional charges to be incurred in 1926–27 are dependent on the decisions taken on the Bill now before Parliament and the course of unemployment, as to which I would refer the hon. Member to the Report of the Government Actuary on the Bill.
