asked the Secretary of State for Employment if he will set out in the Official Report in tabular form, for each of the employment service offices within the Farnham parliamentary constituency, (a) the number of persons unemployed by previous trade, (b) the number of unemployed young people who have had no employment for more than three months since leaving school and are at the present time registered as unemployed, (c) the number of people resident in the Farnham parliamentary constituency who are currently employed under the youth opportunities programme, and the special temporary employment programme and (d) the number of vacancies for each trade for the latest convenient date.
The following table gives for the Farnham, Godalming and Lip-hook employment office areas, which together correspond closely to the Farnham parliamentary constituency, the numbers of people registered as unemployed analysed according to the industry in which they last worked, the numbers of unfilled vacancies in these industries and the numbers of unemployed school leavers. The industrial figures are for 10th August, the latest date for which this quarterly information is available.
