the number of full-time and full-time equivalent staff employed in each of the last 10 years, together with the percentage increase or decrease over the preceding year.

Mr. Peter Walker

The information held by the Department regarding full-time and part-time employees for each year is set out in the following tables. No information on employees by individual authorities is held by the Department prior to December 1978. Information on the number of full-time equivalent employees is not held by the Department and it is not possible to apply national factors to convert part-time employees to full-time equivalent terms.

Figures for Police authorities, Probation and Aftercare committees and Magistrates Courts are separately identified in the tables and are excluded from the county council totals.
