answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 19/06/2014 answer text <p /> <p /> <p>Headline figures on the number of unfilled vacancies at a point in time are published by the Office for National Statistics, based on a regular survey of employers. The sample size of the survey is, however, too small to allow information to be published below national level.</p><p> </p><p>Jobcentre vacancies are just a part of total recruitment, missing jobs available in the wider labour market beyond the local constituency and those coming up through other recruitment channels or filled by direct approaches to employers or word of mouth. A snapshot of unfilled vacancies also misses the regular turnover of new vacancies that come up as existing opportunities are filled. Information on the number of unfilled Jobcentre Plus vacancies was collected until 2012 and the available information is shown in the table. Consistent information on benefits other than Jobseeker's Allowance (JSA) is not available for parliamentary constituencies over this period.</p><p> </p><p>Jobseeker's Allowance caseload and unfilled Jobcentre Plus vacancies</p><table><tbody><tr><td><p> </p></td><td colspan="2"><p>Warrington North</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>November in each year</p></td><td><p>Jobseeker's Allowance claimants</p></td><td><p>Live unfilled vacancies</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>2007</p></td><td><p>1,146</p></td><td><p>1,750</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>2008</p></td><td><p>1,789</p></td><td><p>692</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>2009</p></td><td><p>2,618</p></td><td><p>539</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>2010</p></td><td><p>2,244</p></td><td><p>955</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>2011</p></td><td><p>2,523</p></td><td><p>1,005</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>2012</p></td><td><p>2,529</p></td><td><p>1,495</p></td></tr></tbody></table><p>The latest claimant count figures show the number of JSA claimants in Warrington North has fallen to 1,474 in May 2014. <br></p><p>Universal Jobmatch has replaced the previous Jobcentre Plus system of taking vacancies. Equivalent statistical information on vacancies available through the new service is not currently available. The ONS data shows that nationally there are well over 600,000 vacancies available at any one time. Vacancies available locally through Universal Jobmatch can be accessed at <a href="https://www.gov.uk/jobsearch" target="_blank">https://www.gov.uk/jobsearch</a> .
