§ 1984. Mr. Proctorasked the Secretary of State for Employment if he will list in the Official Report the United Kingdom's total working population in (a) 1964, (b) 1969, (c) 1974, (d) 1979 and (e)
§ Mr. Alan ClarkThe following table gives, for June 1964, June 1969, June 1974, June 1979 and December 1983—the latest available—the total working population
Registered unemployed Unemployed claimants Unfilled vacancies at jobcentres at career offices April 1979 4,265 — 1,364 392 April 1980 4,476 — 561 139 April 1981 8,361 — 241 32 April 1982 7,034 — 364 30 October 1982 11,972 10,635 255 29 April 1983 — 10,945 140 35 April 1984 — 10,924 271 69 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vacancies remaining unfilled at a particular date takes no account of the flow of vacancies being notified, filled or withdrawn which would reflect activity more closely.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 the Walthamstow jobcentre was 4,124. It is estimated that, nationally, the public employment service accounts for about one in four of all placings in the country as a whole.
§ Mr. Deakinsasked the Secretary of State for Employment how many people on youth training schemes in Walthamstow have left them to take up permanent employment.
