HC Deb 13 December 1938 vol 342 cc1815-6W
Mr. E. J. Williams

asked the Secretary for Mines whether he will state the

the number of recipients, for the years 1931 to 1937?

Captain Crookshank

Following is the information so far as available:

number of persons in the South Wales and Monmouthshire coalfields classified as officials in their respective posts for 1920, and each year to date?

Captain Crookshank

Particulars of the number of persons employed according to classes of workers are not collected periodically by my Department. A special inquiry relating to the years 1913 and 1924 was made by the Royal Commission on the Coal Industry (1925) and district figures are given in Appendix No. 18 of Volume III of their report. No later information is available.
