§ Mr. H. WILLIAMSasked the Minister of Labour if he can arrange to publish in the Labour Gazette monthly Reports on the following industries; motor car, silk, artificial silk, lace, and musical instruments, similar to those now published relating to the cotton and other industries?
§ Mr. BETTERTON:For reasons of economy, the special reports in the Ministry of Labour Gazette on the state of employment have to he limited to certain of the largest groups of industries. I am afraid it would not be possible to include special reports on the industries specified by the hon. Member, but, as far as practicable, reference will be made to them, as is now clone, under the appropriate headings. As the hon. Member is doubtless aware, it is the practice to publish in the general tables such unemployment statistics as may be available separately for these industries.
