The person is claimed to be a Member of Parliament but little references are available. The article has also not been expanded/more references added in the last 4 years. Adamgerber80 (talk) 17:37, 27 August 2017 (UTC)
 * Comment: Searches show various traces of the subject's life and work, for example passing mention of organising a protest, and commemorated through memorial lectures  and a street name . See also the Google Books link, though the most useful appear to be in snippet form. AllyD (talk) 20:35, 27 August 2017 (UTC)

 * Keep with refimprove tag. Article certainly does need improvement, but reliable sources do verify that he held an WP:NPOL-passing office. Bearcat (talk) 16:44, 28 August 2017 (UTC)
 * Keep, easily verifiable. See p. 157 for reference that he was Minister of Labour. Clearly WP:BEFORE was not performed here. --Soman (talk) 19:50, 30 August 2017 (UTC)
