HC Deb 18 December 1990 vol 183 c146W
Mr. Cummings

To ask the Secretary of State for Employment what are the numbers employed in tourism and related employment in the Northumbria tourist board area in each of the last five years.

Mr. Jackson

The only information for the Northumbria tourist board area in the period requested is for September 1987, when the estimated number of employees in tourism-related industries was 60,000. This figure does not include the self-employed, for whom comparable estimates are not available.
