Table VIII. —External Migration, Year ended 31st March, 1948, by Occupational Groups

Note. —This table includes only " permanent " arrivals and departures— i.e., those who intend to become permanent residents of New Zealand or those who intend to remain absent for one year or more.

Table IX.—Factories, by Districts and Number of Workers employed (including Working Occupiers), at 31st March, 1948

NOTES.—(a) Of the 192 factories employing 101 or more, 111 employed 101-200, 41 employed 201-300, and 40 employed 301 or more. (6) It will be seen that the total number of factories comprised in that portion of the table showing analysis by size exceeds in most districts the " Number of Registered Factories " shown in the first column. The explanation is that, as mentioned on pp. 8-9 of the 1947 report, many factories carry on production which falls into two or more industrial groups. In such cases only one registration is effected and the first column shows registered factories. The columns " 1 or 2 " to " 101 or more " are, however, based on returns wh ch show production units in each industry, where they appear as separate " factories " classified according to the number of workers in that industry.
