As the Answer contains a number of figures, I will, with permission, circulate the information in the Official Report.

Would the Parliamentary Secretary at least give the total figures for these four exchanges last year and this year?

If I were to do that, I should be giving exactly what I shall give the hon. Gentleman in the Official Report. I will give one as an example. The figures for Brook Green are as follows: 2,892 in 1963 and 2,854 in 1962. The other figures are correspond-dingly all slightly higher than last year.
