The information requested falls within the responsibility of the UK Statistics Authority. I have asked the authority to reply. Letter from Karen Dunnell, National Statistician, to Lord Kilclooney, dated April 2009. As National Statistician, I have been asked to reply to your Parliamentary Question asking what are the percentage unemployment rates in (a) the United States, (b) Germany, (c) France, (d) Spain, (e) the Republic of Ireland, (t) the European Union as a whole, and (g) the United Kingdom. [HL3018] Comparable unemployment rates for EU member states are estimated and published by Eurostat, the Statistical Office of the European Communities, using data derived from the Labour Force Survey in each country. The Eurostat definition of unemployed persons covers those aged 15 to 74. Estimates for 15 year-olds are not available for Spain, therefore the figures published are for people aged 16 to 74 instead. The unemployment rate for the United Kingdom and the United States is based on those aged 16 and over. The latest estimates for each country are provided in the table. This information is updated monthly as part of the Labour Market Statistics First Release and can be found on the National Statistics website at the following address: www.statistics.gov.uk/OnlineProducts/LMS_FR_HS.asp.
