Mr. John Moore
asked the Secretary of State for Employment what was the size of the total work force in the United Kingdom on 1st January 1965 and 1st January 1976.
Mr. Booth
The total working population in the United Kingdom at June 1974, the latest date for which figures are available, was 25,655,000. An estimate on a comparable basis for December 1964, that is after the removal of discontinuities in the statistical series, would be 25,505,000.
