HC Deb 25 April 1910 vol 17 c36
Mr. GEORGE FABER

asked what are the present percentages of unemployment, so far as corresponding data are available, in Germany and in this country, respectively?

Mr. BUXTON

I regret that there are no corresponding data available in Germany and in this country with regard to unemployment which can be properly compared.

Earl WINTERTON

Is the right hon. Gentleman aware that his predecessor at the Board of Trade gave similar information, care being taken to say that the data was not corresponding?

Mr. BUXTON

I have said the data was not corresponding.
