HC Deb 07 February 1961 vol 634 cc38-9W
Mr. LI. Williams

asked the Minister of Labour what was the unemployment percentage figure for North Monmouthshire, comprising Rhymney, Tredegar, Ebbw Vale, Blaina, and Abertillery, at the most recent available date.

Mr. Hare:

I can only give a percentage figure for a slightly different area. On 16th January, 1961, the unemployment percentage was 3. 4 in a district comprising the Brynmawr, Abertillery, Ebbw Vale, Newbridge and Tredegar employment exchange areas.
