HC Deb 26 October 1981 vol 10 c242W

Mr. Knox asked the Secretary of State for Employment how many young people in the Leek parliamentary constituency who left school in 1980 have not yet obtained their first job.

Mr. Peter Morrison:

The statistics do not separately distinguish the number of last year's school leavers who are still unemployed.

In October there were 182 school leavers under 18 registered unemployed in the Leek employment office area.
