HC Deb 06 February 1967 vol 740 cc209-10W
71. Mr. Mapp

asked the Minister of Labour if he will indicate for the latest period this year and the comparative period last year the numbers of part-time men and women registered as becoming unemployed.

Mr. Fernyhough

The information is not available.

The Ministry's statistics show for a specific date each month the number of persons registered for part-time work; they do not purport to relate to persons whose last jobs were in part-time employment.

On 9th January, 1967, there were 1,314 men and 9,062 women in Great Britain registered for part-time employment. Corresponding figures for 10th January, 1966, were 1,712 and 8,369.
