§ Mr. Holtasked the Secretary of State for Employment how many cases under the Employment Protection Act in the past year taken before an industrial tribunal have involved persons who have been employed for more than one year but less than two years.
§ Mr. Peter BottomleyThis information is not available in the form requested. On the basis of a sample analysis of complaints of unfair dismissal for the calendar year 1983 it is estimated that 1,650 such complaints heard by an industrial tribunal involved persons who had been employed for more than one but less than two years.
The figure should be treated with caution because of the margin of error inherent in the sample.
