HC Deb 03 June 1960 vol 624 cc169-70W
Sir W. Robson Brown

asked the Minister of Labour if he will state separately how many official and unofficial strikes took place during April, 1960, and how many men were registered at their local employment exchange as unemployed as a result of these stoppages.
