HC Deb 03 December 1936 vol 318 c1452W
Mr. SHORT

asked the Minister of Labour whether he will state the number of adult and juvenile unemployed in Doncaster, Bentley and Adwick-le-Street; the number receiving assistance from the public assistance committee; and the number with nil determinations?

Mr. E. BROWN

The following table gives the information, so far as it is available, on the assumption that the particulars asked for in the second and third parts of the question relate to applicants for unemployment allowances.

and on 30th October about equal to the number of the latter payments. These variations are mainly due to fluctuations in the number of persons who are temporarily stopped and are then entitled to draw unemployment benefit.
