HC Deb 21 December 1976 vol 923 c156W
28. Mr. Hatton

asked the Secretary of State for Employment what is the latest percentage of unemployment figures available for the city of Manchester; and how this compares with the same period in 1975.

Mr. Golding

Unemployment rates can be calculated only for the whole of the Manchester travel-to-work area. They were 5.7 per cent. at October 1976 and 4.8 per cent. at October 1975.
