The Metropolitan Borough of Bethnal Green includes parts of the areas served by the Employment Exchanges in Shoreditch, Stepney, Hackney and Stratford, and it is not possible, except by way of an approximate estimate, to give the number of unemployed persons resident in Bethnal Green. I am not aware that the absence of precise statistics for this borough deprives persons resident therein of advantages which they would otherwise obtain.
