HC Deb 23 July 1925 vol 186 cc2443-4W
Major HORE-BELISHA

asked the Minister of Labour how many ex-apprentices qualified for various trades in the dockyard are registered on the Devonport Employment Exchange; and

and net imports of wheat, barley and oats, the proportion of home production and net imports to the total supply and the average prices per hundredweight in the years 1922, 1923 and 1924:

how many of these men have been placed in employment in each of the past six months?

Mr. BETTERTON
