To ask the Scottish Executive how many people have been employed in the electronics industry in each year since 1997, broken down by parliamentary constituency.

Information on the number of employee jobs in the electronics industry is collected each year from the Annual Business Inquiry (ABI), which is the official source of employee jobs data. The ABI is run by the Office for National Statistics (ONS). The most recent year for which data is available is 2007. The data is based on employee jobs rather than the number of people in employment (i.e. one person may have more than one job). The ABI does not include self-employed jobs.

Tables 1 and 2 show the number of employee jobs in the electronics industry by parliamentary constituency in each year since 1997. Due to changes in survey methodology, data for 1997 to 2005 is not directly comparable with data for 2006 to 2007.

Of Scotland''s 73 constituencies, 56 are not included in the tables. This is because the number of employee jobs is either less than 50 or has been suppressed as potentially disclosive. Data are suppressed under the Statistics Trade Act 1947 where the identity of an enterprise who made a statistical return could be deduced. Figures that are less than 50 would be rounded to zero and hence aren''t included.

1. The reference date for the ABI from 2006 was changed from December to September.

2. Data are rounded to the nearest 100.

3. ABI data are workplace based.

4. Estimates for 1997-2002 are based on the Standard Industrial Classification (SIC) 1992 codes whereas estimates for 2003 onwards are based on 2003 SIC codes.

*It has not been possible to analyse Orkney and Shetland separately. The data has been obtained from the Nomis website, as the microdata are not held centrally.
