Ms Harman
asked the Secretary of State for Employment how many women ineligible for unemployment benefit are registered at present as unemployed, seeking (a) full-time and (b) part-time work.
Mr. Alison
Following the introduction of voluntary registration on 18 October this information is no longer available. However, special counts will be made in the summer of non-claimant school leavers. More generally, estimates of people seeking work but not claiming benefit will be made, in a similar way that estimates of the unregistered unemployed have been in the past.
