Letter from Angela Eagle:

An error has been identified in the written answer given to the hon. Member for North-East Cambridgeshire (Mr. Moss) on 22 February 2008. The correct version of the table supplied by the national statistician is as follows:

Number of migrant workers in Cambridgeshire, Peterborough and North East Cambridgeshire in the last three years
	Cambridgeshire		Peterborough		North East Cambridgeshire
12 months ending June each year	Employment l evel (thousand)( 1)	Non-UK born persons in employment as percentage of all in employment( 2)	Employment l evel (thousand)( 1)	Non-UK born persons in employment as percentage of all in employment( 2)	Employment l evel (thousand)( 1)	Non-UK born persons in employment as percentage of all in employment( 2)
2005	29	10	10	13	3	5
2006	33	12	10	13	3	6
2007	41	15	14	19	4	9
(1) Includes males aged 16 to 64 and females aged 16 to 59. (2) Denominator for percentage does not include respondents who did not answer the question on country of birth. Notes: 1. Estimates are subject to sampling variability. 2. It should also be noted that the country of birth question in the APS gives an undercount because: it excludes certain people who have been resident in the UK for less than six months. it excludes students in halls who do not have a UK resident parent. it excludes people in most other types of communal establishments (e.g. hotels, boarding houses, hostels, mobile home sites, etc.). it is grossed to population estimates which exclude migrants staying for less than 12 months. microdata are grossed to population estimates consistent with those published in spring 2003 which are significantly lower than the latest population estimates.
