HC Deb 29 July 1971 vol 822 c144W
35. Mr. Robert Taylor

asked the Secretary of State for Employment what changes there have been in his Department's statistical publications in the past year.

Mr. Bryan

The major change is that my Department has just published "British Labour Statistics: Historical Abstract, 1886–1968". This volume has 380 pages of tables and 50 pages of text and is intended as a standard work of reference, bringing together all the main series of statistics published by this Department and its predecessors. This publication will be followed by a series of year books of labour statistics and the first volume, relating to 1969, should appear later this year.
