HC Deb 30 January 1973 vol 849 c344W
43. Mr. Meacher

asked the Chancellor of the Exchequer if he will make a statement regarding the progress of Government policies towards full employment.

Yes. The fall in the seasonally adjusted total of unemployed in Great Britain since March 1972 is 173,000. This is a direct result of the Government's policies for growth.
