HC Deb 21 January 1924 vol 169 c518
77. Mr. D. G. SOMERVILLE

asked the President of the Board of Trade if, taking the six towns where unemployment is most general, he will state in each case what assistance has been given to them, either by the Trade Facilities Act, the grants of Lord St. David's Committee, or by any other means of providing or stimulating employment?

Mr. BETTERTON

I have been asked to reply. It has not yet been found possible to obtain, in respect of the six towns where unemployment is most severe, the information requested. It is being collected, and will be in the form of a tabular statement containing various figures, and will be circulated in the OFFICIAL REPORT. [See Official Report, Volume 169, col. 577.]
