§ Mr. Austin MitchellTo ask the Secretary of State for Employment, pursuant to his answer of 11 March,Official Report, column 433, concerning rewards for productivity, what effect the increase in part-time working in the service sector has had on output per person employed; and if he will restate the published figures to show the estimated increase.
§ Mr. Michael ForsythStatistics on the component of output attributable to part-time workers in the service sector are not compiled. As a result it is not possible to estimate reliably the effect on productivity of an increase in part-time working in the service sector.
