HC Deb 09 December 1992 vol 215 c665W
Mr. Barry Jones

To ask the Secretary of State for Wales if he will list the unemployment figures for(a) Wales and (b) Clwyd for men and for women and as a percentage for May 1979 and for the latest date; and if he will make a statement.

Mr. David Hunt

The earliest month for which data comparable with present coverage are available for local areas is June 1983. The seasonally adjusted series, consistent between 1979 and 1992, is produced only for Wales as a whole. All available unemployment figures can be accessed from the NOMIS database, by House of Commons Library staff.
