HC Deb 19 March 1925 vol 181 cc2498-9W
Major HORE-BELISHA

asked the Minister of Labour whether he will give the figures for unemployment in Devonport for each of the months in 1914, 1919, 1920, 1921, 1922, 1923 and 1924?

Sir A. STEEL-MAITLAND

The numbers on the registers at the Devonport Employment Exchange are as under:

Mr. DAVIDSON

The items referred to by the hon. Member are apparently the same as those dealt with in my reply of the 20th February, 1925, in which I stated that while no entry of additional departmental workmen was made, the execution of these works prevented increase of unemployment by obviating discharges.
