To ask the Secretary of State for Work and Pensions, what the level of youth unemployment was in Suffolk in (a) May 2010 and (b) May 2018.

Labour market data at a local level is collected using the ONS Annual Population Survey. Statistics on youth unemployment for Suffolk are unavailable or unreliable due to small sample sizes. Youth unemployment in the East of England was 199,000 in the quarter March-May 2010, compared to 111,000 in the quarter March-May 2018. This was a decrease by over 40%.
