Unemployment lowest for 13 years

Unemployment on the Island has fallen again - and is now at its lowest level for 13 years, according to new figures from the government.

The Treasury says over the course of last month, 33 people found work - meaning just 407 people are looking for a job.

That gives the Island an unemployment rate of one per cent and the lowest joblessness figure since 2004.

Of those on the unemployment register, 261 are men and 146 women.
