HC Deb 20 January 1981 vol 997 c148W
Mr. Wm. Ross

asked the Secretary of State for Northern Ireland if he will indicate the present number of seasonal workers in Northern Ireland who are excluded from receiving unemployment benefit; if the seasonal workers so excluded include persons who normally work for three months, six months and nine months, respectively, in each year; and what was the number of seasonal workers registered as unemployed in December 1979 and December 1978.

Mr. John Patten

The information asked for is not available and could not be obtained without disproportionate cost.
