Mr. Gordon Brown

asked the Paymaster General if he will list, for each region, the latest figures for additional jobs created since December 1982 for (a) employees who are full-time, (b) employees who are part-time and (c) self-employed; and if he will list the numbers estimated to be second jobs.

Mr. Kenneth Clarke

The available estimates of net changes in employment are given in the table. No breakdown of the estimates for male employees in employment between full time and part time is available for these dates. The number of second jobs included in the estimates of employees in employment by region is not separately identified.
