44. Mr. HICKS

asked the Minister of Labour the number of unemployed building trade operatives who were registered at the Manchester and district sub-exchanges for the week ended 3rd March?

Mr. HUDSON

As the reply includes a table of figures, I will, if I may, circulate a statement in the OFFICIAL REPORT.
