asked the Minister of Labour how many dockers at Tilbury have been unemployed on each working day from 1st March, 1961, to the latest convenient date; and how these figures compare with the similar period last year.
As the reply contains a table of figures, I will, with permission, circulate it in the OFFICIAL REPORT.
Following is the reply:
