Mr. MILLS

asked the Minister of Labour the number of unemployed signing at Erith, Dartford, Crayford, Bexley Heath, and Welling, and in the Dartford Division of Kent; how many of these are ex-service men; how many are disabled, if any; and how many employers are on the King's Roll out of the total number of employers in that Division?

Sir M. BARLOW

The number of persons on the live register of the Employment Exchanges and Branch Offices in the area described as at 3rd December, 1920, was:—

Civilians 897
Ex-service men (non-disabled) 542
Ex-service men (disabled) 5
