HC Deb 26 July 1955 vol 544 c106W
Mr. Shinwell

asked the Minister of Labour to state the number of disabled miners who, because of their disability, are unable to work in the mines; and how far, in those cases where they are able to do light work, arrangements are made to enable them to do so.

Mr. Watkinson

I regret the information is not available. All unemployed disabled workers are given assistance by my officers in securing work of a kind which is suitable for them having regard to their disabilities.
