§ Mr. WigleyTo ask the Secretary of State for Wales how many(a) males and (b) females, together with the overall total, were in full-time employment in each travel-to-work area in Wales and for Wales as a whole in December in each of the last 10 years; and in each case and for each year what proportion this figure represents as a percentage of the total population.
§ Mr. RedwoodInformation on the number of male and female employees in full-time employment by travel-to-work area is available only from the 1981, 1984, 1987, 1989 and 1991 censuses of employment. Information on the total population of travel-to-work areas is only available from the 1981 census of population and, on an approximate basis, from the 1991 census of population. Information on male and female full-time employment and the population of Wales is available for each of the last 10 years. All these data are available form the Nomis databases which can be accessed on-line by the staff of the Library of the House.
