HC Deb 02 May 1927 vol 205 cc1300-1W

Mr. WHITELEY

asked the President of the Board of Trade whether he can state the number of British sailors and foreign sailors, respectively, employed by British shipping companies?

I would refer the hon. Member to the reply I gave on 5th April to a question by the hon. Member for West Toxteth. I am sending him a copy of this reply.
