Mr. FEN BYasked 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-MAITLANDTo 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.
