HC Deb 16 November 1967 vol 754 cc177-8W
Mr. MacArthur

asked the Minister of Labour how many employees were in employment in Perth in June in each year since 1957.

Mr. Fernyhough

Local employment estimates are available in respect of June in each year. The figures for June, 1967, will be available about mid-1968.

Throughout the period 1957–66 the numbers of employees in employment in the area covered by the Perth Employment Exchange remained comparatively stable varying between 27,000 and 29,000.
