HC Deb 11 June 1992 vol 209 c259W
Mr. Ronnie Campbell

To ask the Secretary of State for Employment how many persons under the age of 21 are unemployed in the Morpeth-Northumberland travel-to-work area at the most recent date.

Mr. McLoughlin

Unemployment figures by age and duration are available on a quarterly basis, but only for standard age bands. In April 1992, the latest date for which figures are available, there were 695 claimant unemployed persons aged under 20 in the Morpeth and Ashington travel-to-work area.
