Jobseeker's Allowance November 2007 Publication

The quarterly Jobseeker’s Allowance publication scheduled for release in August 2008 will not be published.

The announcement by the Chancellor of the Exchequer in November 2007 about data transfer and security at HMRC resulted in a review of how data is transferred. Whilst the review was ongoing, a temporary suspension of any movement of data was introduced and it was not possible to retrieve November 2007 data for Jobseeker’s Allowance.

Data has since been restored and the subsequent publications should be produced according to the timetable.
