Letter from Len Cook to Ms Lynne Featherstone dated 21 June 2005:
As National Statistician, I have been asked to reply to your recent Parliamentary Question what the average earnings of full time employees in Hornsey and Wood Green Constituency were in April (a) 1997, (b) 2001, (c) 2002, (d) 2003 and (e) 2004. (5723)
Average earnings are estimated from the Annual Survey of Hours and Earnings and are provided for employees on adult rates of pay whose pay was unaffected by absence during the pay period, by their place of work. This is the standard definition used for Annual Survey of Hours and Earning tables. The Annual Survey of Hours and Earnings does not collect data on the self employed and people who do unpaid work.
I attach a table showing the average gross weekly earnings for full time employees in Hornsey and Wood Green Parliamentary Constituency from 2001 to 2004. This data is also available on the National Statistics website on table 9:
Data for Hornsey and Wood Green for 1997 is not yet available from the Annual Survey of Hours and Earnings, and data from the New Earnings Survey has been suppressed due to quality.
The Annual Survey of Hours and Earnings, carried out in April of each year, is the most comprehensive source of earnings information in the United Kingdom. It has a one per cent sample of all employees.
The Annual Survey of Hours and Earnings publication criteria ensure that all estimates are undisclosive. A number of estimates have been removed from the published tables for these reasons.
