§ Mr. Alan ClarkAs the reply contains a number of figures I will, with permission, circulate the reply in theOfficial Report.
Following is the information.
The following tables give the information for unemployed claimants in the Coventry jobcentre area, which is larger than the constituency, in April 1983 (not available for March) and January 1984, the latest date for which the quarterly statistics by age and duration of unemployment are available. The comparison between the two dates for males aged 60 and over is affected by the provisions announced in the 1983 Budget, which meant that some men aged 60 and over no longer had to sign on in order to receive supplementary benefit or National Insurance credits.

§ Sir David Priceasked the Secretary of State for Employment what are the latest figures for the number of unemployed and the number of registered vacancies in the Southampton travel-to-work area; and how they compare with similar figures for 1983 and 1982, respectively.
§ Mr. Alan ClarkTable 1 gives the number registered as unemployed in April 1982 and the numbers of unemployed claimants in April 1983 and April 1984 in the Southampton travel-to-work area. It also gives the figures on both bases for October 1982.
Table 2 gives the numbers of notified vacancies remaining unfilled at jobcentres and careers offices in the Southampton travel-to-work area in April each year from 1982.

The effect of the Budget provisions nationally was about one half of 1 per cent., estimates of the effect at local level are not available.
Table 2 Notified unfilled vacancies April At jobcentres At careers offices 1982 863 21 1983 1,025 58 1984 1,253 56 Vacancies notified to jobcentres are estimated to be about one third of all vacancies in the country as a whole. Because of possible duplication, the figures for jobcentres and careers offices should not be added together. The number of vacancies unfilled at a particular date takes no account of the flow of vacancies being notified, filled or withdrawn, which would reflect activity more closely. For example, during the 12-month period to December 1983, the number of people placed in jobs by jobcentres in the

The comparisons between the two dates are affected by the change in the basis of the unemployment count in October 1982 and by the 1983 Budget provisions which meant that some men aged 60 and over no longer had to sign on in order to receive supplementary benefit or national insurance credits.
