9. Sir William Beveridge said it occurred to him that a woman who had not been gainfully occupied and who had suddenly been left a widow without any encumbrances, might say that she had been doing domestic work for her husband and might claim to be qualified for benefit in respect of the contributions made by her husand [husband]. He said he didn't want to lay down a law. That was a matter that should be considered to see what would be the best and fairest thing to do for her. Miss Loughlin then thanked Sir William and Lady Beveridge for coming to the meeting and giving up their valuable time. She asked Lady Beveridge if she would like to say a few words to the Council. Lady Beveridge thanked the Council for their reception and also their good wishes. SIR WILLIAM AND LADY BEVERIDGE THEN LEFT THE MEETING. EW/17.12.42.
