HC Deb 01 August 1972 vol 842 c59W
29. Mr. Ashley

asked the Secretary of State for Employment how many part-time jobs for women there are; and how many part-time vacancies exist.

Mr. Dudley Smith

The latest available statistics derive from the 1966 Sample Census and show about 2,748,000 women working part-time, some of whom would be self-employed. My Department does not distiguish between part-time and full-time vacancies in its statistics.
