§ Mr. Brayasked the Secretary of State for Employment what are the percentages of job opportunities notified to his Department by prospective employers in the categories unskilled, semi-skilled, skilled, executive, supervisory, and other vacancies, including retail trade.
§ Mr. Dudley SmithI regret that information by categories is not available. The best estimate we can make overall is that between 20 per cent. and 25 per cent. of job opportunities are notified to our local offices. The proportion could vary considerably in particular areas.
