HC Deb 19 February 1948 vol 447 cc263-4W
Mr. G. Roberts

asked the Minister of Labour what was the number of persons registered as unemployed at the local offices of his Department in Caernarvon-shire on the last convenient date.

workers in the period May, 1946, to January, 1948, was 28,226; but there is no record of the number of workers, in respect of whom permits have been issued, who have actually come to this country.
