HC Deb 24 January 1930 vol 234 c488W
Mr. KELLY

asked the Minister of Labour the number of men dismissed from His Majesty's dockyards on the unemployment register during each month in 1919; and whether especial difficulty is experienced in finding alternative employment for this class of worker?

Miss BONDFIELD

I am having inquiries made to see if it is possible to supply my hon. Friend with the figures he has asked for, and I will communicate with him in due course. No special difficulty is experienced in placing these workers in employment, although their prospects are obviously affected by the state of employment in their respective occupations in their own and other districts.
