HC Deb 18 June 1913 vol 54 c390W
3. Mr. BOWERMAN

asked the President of the Board of Trade the number of trade union members registered under the Trade Union Act and the Friendly Societies Act, giving the totals separately'?

Mr. MASTERMAN

The membership of registered trade unions in the United Kingdom at 31st December, 1911, the latest date at which information is available, was 2,378,957. I fear I have no information as to the number of trade union members of registered friendly societies.
