HC Deb 25 June 1924 vol 175 c466W
Sir W. de FRECE

asked the Minister of Labour if, taking the number of those who have been refused unemployment benefit during the last year as a result of official decision that they were not seriously trying to obtain employment, he will give the industries to which in general these men and women belong?

Mr. SHAW

I regret I am unable to give the information asked for, as the returns on which the figures are based do not provide for classification by industry.
