HC Deb 11 July 1928 vol 219 c2260W
Mr. FEN BY

asked the Minister of Labour, for each county borough and administrative county, the number of insured men unemployed in each month of the years 1922 to 1927, inclusive?

Sir A. STEEL-MAITLAND

To get out the whole of this information would, I am afraid, involve a very great amount of clerical labour, and in any case, the details are no longer available for a complete year earlier than 1924. I am, however, having a table prepared, which I trust will suffice for the hon. Member's purposes, showing the annual averages, based on quarterly figures, for the years 1924–27, and will circulate this in the OFFICIAL REPORT as soon as it is completed.
