HC Deb 05 May 1976 vol 910 cc394-5W
Mr. Wrigglesworth

asked the Secretary of State for Employment (1) when he expects to be in a position to identify the cause of the inaccuracy of the monthly figures of young unemployed people; and if he will make a statement;

(2) if he will recommence publication of monthly figures of young people unemployed when he has established the reason for the discrepancy between the six monthly figure and the monthly figures so far published.

Mr. Golding

Initial inquiries have been made and tentative conclusions drawn, but until the inquiries are complete I would prefer not to make a statement. It is certainly my intention to resume publication of monthly figures as soon as I am satisfied as to their accuracy.
