Future changes in the size and composition of the British labour force: a regional projection exercise.

"The main purpose of this study is to develop a methodology for generating parallel projections of regional population and labour force which not only incorporates expected age/sex/marital-status/regional differences in the economic activity rates but at the same time takes account of demographic factors such as fertility, mortality and interregional migration in the overall projections." A model is developed and adapted to project the British regional population and labor force for 1976 and 1981. These forecasts are then evaluated by comparing them with Office of Population Censuses and Surveys forecasts for the same years (SUMMARY IN FRE, GER)
