HC Deb 06 March 1924 vol 170 c1660W
Mr. A. SOMERVILLE

asked the Parliamentary Secretary to the Overseas Trade Department how many men went to Canada from this country last year to obtain temporary work as harvesters; how many of them obtained permanent work in Canada; and how many were repatriated at the expense of the Canadian Government?

Mr. LUNN

I would refer the hon. Member to the answer which I gave on this subject on the 25th February to the hon. Member for the Kidderminster Division of Worcestershire (Mr. Wardlaw-Milne). Such of these men as were repatriated returned at the expense of the shipping companies.
