HC Deb 13 May 1959 vol 605 c143W
67. Mr. G. Thomas

asked the Minister of Labour whether he will make a statement on the prospects of employment for disabled persons in Cardiff.

Mr. Wood

The prospects must principally depend on general employment trends in Cardiff. Recently there has been some improvement in unemployment among disabled men, but this has been offset by a rise in the number of unemployed disabled women. My disablement resettlement officers will continue their efforts to find suitable work for the disabled.
