asked the Secretary of State for Employment what is the present work force employed in the radar production industry of the United Kingdom; and if he will list British firms employing such people.

I regret that the information is not available.This Department's employment statistics are analysed according to the minimum list headings of the standard industrial classification (1968 edition). This does not identify separately the manufacture of radar equipment which is included with alarms and signalling equipment, radio transmitters and receivers and electronic capital goods in heading 367—radio, radar and electronic capital goods.

Information about the industrial activities carried on at individual employers' establishments is collected under the Statistics of Trade Act 1947 and cannot be disclosed.
