please write to Mike Hughes, Group Director, National Statistics Policy
Group, Office for National Statistics, Drummond Gate, London, SW1V 2QQ.

Annex A

The figures are due to be published in an article in the July edition of
Economic and Labour Market Review on 14 July 2008.

We have extracted the latest estimates from the article to allow for an
earlier response to you, these are as follows:

2007 Q4 public sector employment (headcount, rolling four quarter
average) by country of workplace:

4,670,000 England

578,000 Scotland

314,000 Wales

220,000 N Ireland

*

2007 Q4 public sector employment rate by country of workplace:

28.7% N Ireland

23.6% Wales

22.5% Scotland

19.0% England

Notes:
1 Public sector employment estimates for Scotland are published by
Scottish Government on a quarterly basis back to Q1 1999 from
administrative records and surveys of public sector organisations in
Scotland.
2 Public sector statistics for Northern Ireland relate to the number of
public sector jobs rather than the number of people working in the public
sector. The percentages for Northern Ireland as a proportion of all
employment will differ from DETINI estimates expressed as a proportion of
all jobs. HM Forces figures are not included in Northern Ireland estimates.
3 Sources : Labour Force Survey, returns from public sector
organisations (ONS, Scottish Government & Department of Enterprise, Trade
and Investment for Northern Ireland).
