HC Deb 07 July 1976 vol 914 c602W
Mr. Alan Lee Williams

asked the Secretary of State for Employment if he will set out the figures of wholly unemployed and unfilled vacancies within the London borough of Havering.

Mr. Golding

At June 1976, 5,033 people were registered as unemployed in the area covered by the Dagenham, Horn-church and Romford employment offices. At that date, 473 notified unfilled vacancies were held by the employment offices and 64 by the careers offices. Because of possible duplication the vacancy figures for employment offices and careers offices should not be added together nor do they constitute a measure of total vacancies in the area.
