HC Deb 26 May 1982 vol 24 cc350-1W
Mr. Gordon Wilson

asked the Secretary of State for Scotland if he will show the current number of vacancies in Dundee and give a breakdown by standard industrial classification.

Mr. Alexander Fletcher

I refer the hon. Member to the reply that I gave to the hon. Member for Dundee, West (Mr. Ross) on 16 March 1982.—[Vol. 20, c. 100–102.] The February 1982 analysis by industry remains the latest available. However, on 2 April 1982 there were a total of 307 vacancies notified to the employment office and five to the careers office in Dundee remaining unfilled.
