Contributions under the present scheme of Unemployment Insurance, as well as Class 1 contributions, will all count towards the 30. 26. How Long may I Draw Unemployment Benefit ? In the first place for 180 days. But you may be entitled to additional days of benefit, if you have a good contribution record and have not drawn much benefit in recent years. With these you may be entitled to as much as a year's benefit in all. If these rights are used up, standard benefit will not again be paid until there has been a further 13 weeks of Class 1 employment.

This extended Unemployment Benefit is paid out of general taxation, not out of National Insurance contributions. The Tribunal will not inquire into means. 27. Waiting Period.

You may be disqualified for a period of up to six weeks if you : 19
