As the reply includes a table of figures, I will, if I may, circulate it in the OFFICIAL REPORT.

Following is the reply:

The table below gives, in respect of 15th May, 1939, for each Employment Exchange in Monmouthshire, the total number of unemployed persons on the register, the number of applicants for benefit or unemployment allowances, and the number of such applicants who had been continuously on the registers for one year or more.
