Than the claimant count. TWRI 1 State of the Tyne & Wear Labour Market Report Winter 2009/10 §1: Employment Expectations In Q4 2009, Tyne & Wear service firms’ employment continued to fall (blue line below zero), but this halved from Q3 (to about 5pp) like for British service firms (yellow). Service firms’ employment change has been negative in the last 5 quarters (Britain, yellow line) and 6 quarters (TW, blue line). Caution: TW’s high level of expected employment change, at about +20pp as in Q3 (red) may not mean much growth: historically, TW service firms have usually been over-optimistic by around 15-20pp, whereas British service firms have been so by around 10pp. Service Workforce Britain and TW 60 40 20 Balance 0 -20 -40 06 07 08 09 Actual TW Expected TW Actual Br Expected Br Source: Business Survey NE (TW data) – from Economic Research Services; national data from British Chamber of Commerce. Caution: these measures weight all firms equally, and make no allowance for the different scale of job changes in different firms and industries. For the first time since early 2008, Tyne & Wear manufacturing firms’ reported employment change in Q3 was positive (blue line), as was British firms’ (yellow line). This follows a weak Q3 for Tyne & Wear manufacturing firms. Manufacturing Workforce Britain and TW 60 40 20 0 Balance -20 -40 -60 06 07 08 09 Actual TW Expected TW Actual Br Expected Br Caution: the expectations of manufacturing firms (for the next 3 months) proved to have a poor forecasting ability over the four years. In Q3 this was extreme; the record gloomy manufacturing employment prospects (about -50pp) among TW’s firms (red line) was followed by employment growth! They have been replaced by mildly positive prospects, slightly above Britain’s (green line). 2 TWRI State of the Tyne & Wear Labour Market Report Winter 2009/10 §2: Job Change Announcements Job Changes in the Q45 period (as reported in the press), on a net basis, were quite strongly positive as in Q36 (both around +1,200). This appears to be a clear break with the previous five quarters which were mostly weak, as in Q2 (around +450), or negative. Extremely tentatively, this press evidence from the second half of 2009 is broadly consistent with the TW private sector economy expanding employment by about 2-3,000pa (or about 0.4- 0.6%pa), subject to time ‘lags’ (delays) with the gains. This is a rough central estimate, with a wide range of uncertainty (possibly of thousands, due to unknown omissions. Note, below, gives explanation). Job Change Job gains minus job losses, from the press 5000 3000 1000 -1000 -3000 -5000 '91 '92 '93 '94 '95 '96 '97 '98 '99 '00 01 02 03 04 05 '06 '07 '08 '09 Quarter Net Job Change Source: The press as logged by TWRI A full itemised list of reported job gains and losses is given at the end of this report (in size order). Note on interpretation of press reports of Job Change (JC), aggregated by TWRI: This source gives good coverage of market services and manufacturing – together about half the economy. It therefore has important gaps (‘omissions’), the three main ones being; public service employment growth was never reported in any significant way (1997-2007), job losses from small retailers are never captured effectively and construction (as with other sources) cannot be recorded at all. A fourth gap was created through temporary jobs being reported but their demise not being. TWRI analysis of the long-term series (14 years) has found the JC series typically omitted about 2,000pa job losses (but this is variable). This might be partly explained by the time lags from announced gains to their fruition. 5 Oct-Dec 6 Jul -Sept 2009. TWRI 3 State of the Tyne & Wear Labour Market Report Winter 2009/10 §3: Claimant Unemployment In Tyne & Wear, claimant unemployment was broadly flat from March to December (graph, below). ‘Normal’ seasonal patterns would have reduced unemployment over these 9 months (roughly as in 2005, below). Thus seasonally adjusted claimant unemployment rose slightly (perhaps between 500-1,000). The chart (below) shows comparison with previous ‘normal’ years such as 2005; that year, claimant unemployment fell by about 1,500 from March-December. Claimants in Tyne & Wear 2005, 2007, 2009 45,000 40,000 35,000 30,000 25,000 20,000 15,000 10,000 5,000 0 January February March April May June July August September October November December 2005 2007 2009 In 2009, from spring-December, claimant unemployment fell in South Tyneside and, particularly, in Sunderland. Indeed, by January 2010, Sunderland was the only District with lower unemployment than in April (9 months earlier), down over 400 (shown in table, below).

Copyright © City of Newcastle upon Tyne on behalf of the LA7. 2013 All Rights Reserved eLocation: [ ] Document Owner: Caroline Winter, Project Manager Page 1 of 39 Copyright © City of Newcastle upon Tyne on behalf of the LA7. 2013. All Rights Reserved LA7 LEADERSHIP BOARD Foreword The LA7 Leadership Board shares an ambition to create the best possible conditions for growth in jobs, investment and living standards. We want to make the North East an excellent location for business, to prioritise and deliver high quality infrastructure, and to enable all the people we serve to raise their skill levels and benefit from economic growth into the future. The North East is a distinctive and beautiful place with a host of opportunities for the people who live and work here. Economic conditions, structural changes and funding cuts have each prompted us all to review both what we do and the way we do it. We have undertaken a review of the current position to see if the enhanced structures, owned by our local authorities but working on behalf of all of them could bring mutual benefits. The LA7 Leadership Board think the report is clear. There is a case for change that will bring benefits to all the people we serve and will help us to achieve greater economic prosperity for the North East. We would like to thank colleagues for their work in undertaking this review and in the preparation of this report.

  • The Effects of the Winter of 1962/63 on the British Marine Fauna
    The effects of the winter of 1962/63 on the British marine fauna DENNIS J. CRisP Marine Science Laboratories, Menai Bridge, Anglesey, U. K. KURZFASSUNG: Die Wirkungen des Winters 1962/63 auf die Britische Meeresfauna. W~ih- rend des ungewShnlich kalten Winters 1962/63 herrschten die niedrigsten Temperaturen an der Stidostkilste Groi~britanniens. Die grSflten negativen Anomalien dagegen wurden an den Kiisten yon Hampshire und Dorset, im Bristol-Kanal und in Teilen yon Nor&Wales fest- gestellt. Die nSrdlichen Formen wurden im allgemeinen nicht ernstlich beeintrilchtigt, aber einige keltische und siidliche Formen erlitten sehr hohe Verluste im Bereich der Gezeitenzone, insbesondere in mehr oder minder abgeschlossenen Buchten im Gebiet der oben erwiihnten Lokalifiiten. Bei den siidlichen Formen der exponierten Kiisten der westlichen Vorgebirge war die Sterblichkeit relativ gering; marine Algen wurden ebenfalls nur wenig gesch~idigt. Der Tod trat nicht nur als direkte Folge der K~ilteeinwirkung auf die Gewebe ein, sondern wurde auch durch die zu welt gehende Herabsetzung der Aktivit~it (etwa unzureichende Zilienaktivit~it zur Entfernung sedimentierender Schlammpartikel, mangelnde Anhaftungsf~ihigkeit an die Felsoberfl~iche oder ungentigendes EingrabungsvermSgen) verursacht. Selbst in Situationen, in denen hohe Sterblichkeitsraten auftraten, iiberlebten im allgemeinen einige wenige (vielteicht resistentere) Individuen in giinstigen Habitaten, so dag die Verbreitungsgrenzen nur gering- fiigig beeinfluflt wurden. Bei vMen Litoralformen spielte zudem ein adaptives Verhalten eine wichtige Rolle Rir das erfolgreiche 13berstehen der Kiilteperiode. CONDITIONS IN BRITAIN DURING JANUARY AND FEBRUARY 1963 From late December 1962 until late February 1963 air temperatures over a large part of southern England averaged between 5 and 60 C below the seasonal average.
