§ Mr. Roy Hughesasked the Secretary of State for Employment and Productivity if she will state the number of boys and girls unemployed in Newport, Monmouthshire, at the latest available date; and how this compares with the figures at an equivalent date over the past four years.
§ Mr. FernyhoughThe figures are as follows:
Boys Girls 14th July, 1969 158 143 8th July, 1968 58 28 10th July, 1967 98 49 11th July, 1966 26 25 12th July, 1965 24 34 Because of the timing of the end of the school term, only the 1969 figures include summer school leavers registered for employment.
