‹ Ceisteanna—Questions. Oral Answers. - Married Women's Unemployment Benefit. Alleged removal from the unemployment register
Summary
Mitchell accused the Government of removing people from the dole to reduce the unemployment figures; the Ceann Comhairle ruled it a separate question, and no answer followed.
Is it not a fact that one of the measures being taken by the Government to cosmetically reduce the unemployment register figures is to knock people off the dole? Will the Minister deny that that is a fact?
Comment on this
I have asked the Minister if he will confirm that it is Government policy to knock people off the dole.
