To ask the Chancellor of the Exchequer how many permanent jobs have been created in each year since 1981 net of losses and relocations. [34141]

[holding answer 13 July 1995]: Information is available only for the net change in permanent employees and comparable information is available only from 1984. The information is given in the table:

Net change in permanent employees in Great Britain:
Spring of early year (thousands)
Net change
1984–85158
1985–8688
1986–8752
1987–88654
1988–89628
1989–90217
1990–91-354
1991–92-589
1992–93-275
1993–94-11

Note:

Information prior to 1992 has not yet been re-weighted to take account of OPCS revised population estimates and hence there is a discontinuity in the series between 1991 and 1992.
