HC Deb 04 July 1994 vol 246 c94W
Mr. Barry Jones

To ask the Secretary of State for Employment how many people in Alyn and Deeside have been placed in work by the Employment Service in the last 12 months.

Mr. Michael Forsyth

Responsibility for the subject of the question has been delegated to the Employment Service Agency under its chief executive. I have asked him to arrange for a reply to be given.

Letter from A. G. Johnson to Mr. Barry Jones, dated 4 July 1994: The Secretary of State has asked me to reply to your Parliamentary Question about how many people in Alyn and Deeside have been placed into work by the Employment Service in the last 12 months. I am replying in the Chief Executive's absence. There were 2,605 job placings made by the Employment Service in Alyn and Deeside in the 12 month period ending 3 June 1994. 2,300 of these were placings of unemployed people, 341 of which were people unemployed for more than six months and 52 of which were unemployed people with disabilities. I hope this is helpful.
