To ask the Minister for the Cabinet Office what estimate his Department has made of the net change in the number of people in (a) Woking constituency and (b) Surrey in employment in each of the last five years.

The information requested falls within the responsibility of the UK Statistics Authority. I have asked the authority to reply.
Letter from Glen Watson, dated July 2013:
As Director General for the Office for National Statistics (ONS), I have been asked to reply to your Parliamentary Question asking the Minister for the Cabinet Office, what estimate his Department has made of the net change in the number of people in (a) Woking constituency and (b) Surrey in employment in each of the last five years. (166303)
The Office for National Statistics (ONS) compiles employment statistics for local areas from the Annual Population Survey (APS) following International Labour Organisation (ILO) definitions.
The table shows the number and net change of people employed in Woking constituency and Surrey. These estimates are compiled from APS interviews held during the period January 2012 to December 2012 and the 12 month periods ending in December in each year since 2008.
As with any sample survey, estimates from the APS are subject to a margin of uncertainty. A guide to the quality of the estimates is given in the table.
National and local area estimates for many labour market statistics, including employment, unemployment and claimant count are available on the NOMIS website at:

The net change is calculated on unrounded
figures. 2 Coefficients of Variation have been calculated for the latest period as an indication of the quality of the estimates. See Guide to Quality below: Guide to Quality: The Coefficient of Variation (CV) indicates the quality of an estimate, the smaller the CV value the higher the quality. The true value is likely to lie within +/- twice the CV - for example, for an estimate of 200 with a CV of 5% we would expect the population total to be within the range 180-220. Key: * 0 = CV <5%—Statistical Robustness: Estimates are considered precise ** 5 = CV <10%—Statistical Robustness: Estimates are considered reasonably precise *** 10 = CV <20%—Statistical Robustness: Estimates are considered acceptable **** CV ? 20%—Statistical Robustness: Estimates are considered too unreliable for practical purposes |

Surrey county council seemed to take the right approach to begin with. It was a twin-track approach of sorting out the parents and bringing in the children together. Then, of course, it flew apart. Is that what the Minister means by a twin-track approach?

Data as at 31 December 2012 were collected earlier this year and are currently being validated and will be published in the autumn. Data are collected at billing authority level; we do not collect data at constituency level.
Thanks to the temporary extension of small business rate relief until April 2014, we estimate that approximately half a million businesses in England are benefiting, with approximately a third of a million paying no rates at all. The Localism Act 2011 has also made it easier for eligible small firms to claim their small business rate relief.

To ask the Secretary of State for Work and Pensions what reduction in long-term unemployment there has been since the start of the Work programme in (a) Woking constituency and (b) Surrey.
[139677]
Since June 2011 the number of people claiming jobseeker's allowance for more than a year has risen from 140 to 170 in Woking and from 1,605 to 2,310 in Surrey. Comparisons over this period are distorted by changes in the way people on government programmes are treated in the statistics. Under previous programmes the number of long-term JSA claimants was held down by requiring those reaching certain durations to move into a temporary job or take up support funded by a training allowance. This caused a break in the JSA claim and those who later returned to benefit were treated as a new claim with zero starting duration. People joining the Work programme do not have their claim broken artificially in this way, continuing to receive JSA until they move into a regular job. This has led to a rise in the number of JSA claims with a continuous duration of more than a year, but means the figures now give a more accurate reflection of the true level of long-term benefit receipt.

We have published data on the number of new enterprise allowance (NEA) mentor starts and weekly allowance starts by parliamentary constituency area. This can be found in the table at the following link:
http://data.parliament.uk/DepositedPapers/Files/DEP2012-1524/LibraryDocument124133.xls
In Woking, there were 10 NEA mentor starts and 10 weekly allowance starts over the period June 2011 to May 2012. In the county of Surrey, there were 130 mentor starts and 60 weekly allowance starts over the same period.
The numbers have been rounded to the nearest 10.

Letter from Glen Watson:
As Director General for the Office for National Statistics (ONS), I have been asked to reply to your Parliamentary Question asking, what proportion of people (a) in Woking constituency and (b) nationally were employed in the (i) private, (ii) public and (iii) third sector in each of the last five years. (138749)
Employment statistics for local areas are calculated from the Annual Population Survey (APS). Estimates of people employed in the third sector are currently not available from APS. Individuals employed in voluntary organisations, charities and trusts are included in private sector estimates.
Individuals in the APS are classified to the public or private sector according to their responses to the survey. In the APS the distinction between public and private sector is based on respondents' views about the organisation for which they work. The public sector estimates provided do not correspond to official Public Sector Employment estimates. Those are derived directly from employers and are based on National Accounts definition and are not available for areas smaller than regions.
The tables show the number and percentage of people aged 16 to 64 years, who were employed in the public or private sector along with those who were unemployed or inactive, resident in Woking parliamentary constituency and the UK. These estimates are compiled from APS interviews held during the period October 2011 to September 2012, the latest period available, and the 12 month periods ending in December from 2008 to 2011. It should also be noted that the estimates also include people who were employed but have not provided enough information to be accurately included in either the public or private sectors.
As with any sample survey, estimates from the APS are subject to a margin of uncertainty. A guide to the quality of the estimates is given in the table.
National and local area estimates for many labour market statistics, including employment, unemployment and claimant count are available on the NOMIS website at:
