HC Deb 11 May 1976 vol 911 c101W
Mr. Woof

asked the Secretary of State for Employment on what basis the European Commission collects data and work on the analysis of industrial problems related to the current economic situation.

Mr. John Grant

The Commission receives all published statistics on employment aspects of the current economic situation. The Commission's understanding of these and of the analyses of current problems in member countries is further developed at periodical meetings of officials. Collection and documentation of analytic work is the subject of a study referred to in reply to a later Question today from my hon. Friend.
