The First-tier Tribunal—Social Security and Child Support (SSCS), administered by HM Courts and Tribunals Service, hears appeals against Department for Work and Pensions (DWP) decisions on entitlement to employment and support allowance (ESA). Appeals can be made against elements of an ESA award, such as the rate of entitlement, as well as against a decision to refuse ESA.
The following tables show the number and proportion of ESA appeals found in favour of the appellant and in favour of DWP in the tribunal venues in Glasgow and Hamilton, which serve appellants living in the North Lanarkshire and Airdrie and Shotts constituencies, as well as other nearby locations, in 2009-10, 2010-11, 2011-12 and April to December 2012 (the latest period for which statistics have been published).

The Annual Survey of Hours and Earnings (ASHE), carried out in April each year, is the most comprehensive source of earnings information in the United Kingdom. Annual levels of earnings are estimated from ASHE, and are provided for employees on adult rates of pay, who have been in the same job for more than a year.
I attach a table showing the median gross annual earnings for male employees, female employees and all employee jobs in (a) Scotland and (b) Airdrie and Shotts constituency, for each year from 2010 to 2012.

The information requested falls within the responsibility of the UK Statistics Authority. I have asked the authority to reply.
Letter from Glen Watson, dated March 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 proportion of people were employed in (a) public sector, (b) private sector and (c) third sector organisations in Airdrie and Shotts constituency in each of the last five years for which figures are available (150567).
Labour Market 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 a 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 Airdrie and Shotts constituency. These estimates are compiled from APS interviews held during the period January 2012 to December 2012, the latest period available, and the 12 month periods ending in December from 2008 to 2011. It should 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 tables.
National and local area estimates for many labour market statistics, including employment, unemployment and claimant count are available on the NOMIS website at:

Expenditure is not available at parliamentary constituency level by month, only for complete financial years. The most recent data available is 2010-11.
Disability living allowance expenditure in Airdrie and Shotts in 2010-11 was £30.3 million1.
DWP does not produce forecasts of benefit expenditure below Great Britain level. Because new claims to personal independence payment for people living in Airdrie and Shotts constituency will only start to be taken from June 2013, and existing disability living allowance recipients will only begin to be reassessed from October 2013, there will be no personal independence payment expenditure in Airdrie and Shotts in April 2013.
