HC Deb 23 March 1910 vol 15 cc1042-3
Mr. HUNT

asked the Secretary of State for the Home Department, if he can give the number of men employed in Great Britain who are not British subjects?

Mr. CHURCHILL

The only information on this subject of which I am aware is to be found in the volumes of the Census for the year 1901. The numbers of persons returned as foreigners are shown in those volumes; and the occupations are given of 148,345 male foreigners, namely, 131,958 in England and Wales, 10,912 in Scotland, and 5,475 in Ireland.
