HC Deb 13 November 1930 vol 244 c1826
8. Mr. DAY

asked the Minister of Labour whether there are any statistics available in her Department from which she can make an estimate as to the effect up to date of de-rating in lessening unemployment?

Miss. BONDFIELD

I regret that there are no statistics available from which such an estimate could be made.

Mr. DAY

Cannot my right hon. Friend give an estimate of the number, in view of the promises that were held out?

Miss BONDFIELD

It does not fall within my Department.
