HC Deb 04 August 1980 vol 990 c17W
Mr. Wigley

asked the Secretary of State for Employment if he will list those employment offices in England which in July had more registered job vacancies than they had registered unemployed, not seasonally adjusted, for their area.

Mr. Jim Lester

[pursuant to his reply, 30 July 1980, c. 674–5]: There are no local employment offices in England at which unfilled vacancies exceed the numbers unemployed. It should be noted, however, that only about one-third of all vacancies are notified to my Department.
