1 The figures in columns 2, 3 and 4 are the total number of Lists (received from employers who sent them both in February and August as required by the Act) and of the entries of names of
Outworkers in those Lists. They will, therefore, usually be double of the number of such employers and (approximately) double of the number of individual Outworkers whose names are given, since
in the February and August Lists of the same employer the same Outworker's name will often be repeated.
