Full Employment

HC Deb 19 February 1968 vol 759 c28

52. Mr. William Price

asked the Minister of Labour whether he will define the term, full employment, as used by his Department.

Mr. Gunter

The reduction of involuntary unemployment to the lowest practicable level.

Mr. Price

Will my right hon. Friend bear in mind that, whatever some of the academics say, there is only one interpretation of full employment on this side of the House, and that we want it implemented?

Mr. Gunter

Indeed.
