11 Acknowledgements My interest in the problem of youth unemployment began when I was invited to prepare a report on the subject for the Directorate General of Employment and Social Affairs of the Commission of the European Communities. On their initiative an approach was made to the Directorate of Social and Demographic Statistics of the Statistical Office of the European Communities for permission to use unpublished tabulations from the biennial Labour Force Sample Survey. I should like to thank the Commission for financial support in preparing the original report, and also acknowledge the help received from the Statistical Office, both in preparing the report and in producing the present work. I cannot name the individuals concerned, but nevertheless I am very grateful to them. Needless to say, neither the Commission nor the Statistical Office necessarily concurs either with the analysis and interpretation of the evidence, nor with the views on policy expressed in this book. The manuscript has benefited considerably from the comments and criticisms of Paul Cheshire, John Creedy, Geoffrey Denton, Peter Hart, Ros Ingham, David Metcalf and Richard Pankhurst. Naturally the responsibility for all errors and omissions is mine alone. Special thanks are due to Gerard Dummett, who gave up part of his summer vacation to help in the preparation of the statistical tables which appear in the text. The manuscript was typed most efficiently by Barbara Wall, Joan Horton, Margaret Lewis, Maggie Fillingham and Cynthia Fido. Once again I must thank my wife for looking after the interests of the nonspecialist reader. M. C. C. xii
