HC Deb 21 April 1982 vol 22 cc90-1W
Sir Brandon Rhys Williams

asked the Secretary of State for Employment if he will publish figures for the latest date available showing what percentages of (a) men and (b) women unemployed for over 12 months had previous earnings below the average manual earnings for their sex; and if he will compare these ratios with the ratios of men and women on low earnings to the total male and female work forces.

Mr. Alison

I regret that the information requested is not available.
