Letter from M. E. G. Fogden to Mr. David Hinchliffe, dated 23 October 1995:
The Secretary of State has asked me to reply to your question about the number of unemployed people who were placed into work in 1994/95.I am pleased to tell you that the Employment Service exceeded its target of 1.7 million and actually placed 1,876,856 unemployed people into work in 1994/95. This is made up of the following:-
- (a) Full-time and permanent jobs - 900,933
- (b) Part-time and permanent jobs - 435,069
- (c) Full-time temporary jobs - 382,849
- (d) Part-time temporary jobs - 110,223
The above figure is 47,782 less than the overall total. This is because a small number of placings are not captured on our computerised recording system in a way which allows a distinction to be made in the form you have requested.I hope this is helpful.
