HC Deb 24 March 1986 vol 94 cc356-7W
Mr. Kennedy

asked the Paymaster General if, further to the answer to the hon. Member for Ross, Cromarty and Skye of 13 March, Official Report, column 546, he will give some indication of the regional distribution within Scotland of each of the following categories from the labour force survey relevant to the spring of 1984: (a) previously self-employed people without jobs and seeking work who were excluded from the unemployment count, (b) previously self-employed claimants included in the count who were not actively looking for work, and (c) claimants who did some paid work in the reference week and said they were self-employed.

Mr. Lang

The information is not available for the areas requested because of the possible sampling error on the small numbers involved.
