§ Mr. Albuasked the Secretary of State for Employment what was the number of male and female employees registered as industrial workers in the North London area and the number unemployed, for each of the last 10 years.
§ Mr. Dudley SmithEstimates of the numbers in employment are available only for Greater London as a whole. The following table shows the numbers of unemployed people who last worked in manufacturing industries in the area covered by the Barnet, Enfield, Finchley,294W Leyton and Walthamstow, Tottenham and Wood Green employment exchanges. Industrial analyses of the unemployed are made monthly but for local areas only the figures for June and December are retained for more than five years. The unemployment information for the last 10 years has therefore been based on the December figures.
