 The seasonally adjusted Australian unemployment rate was 5.2 per cent in
October, as announced by the Australian Bureau of Statistics (ABS)
today. The ABS reported the number of people employed increased by 10,100 to
11,462,300 in October. The increase in employment was driven by an
increase in full-time employment, up 20,000 people to 8,067,500, and was
offset by a decrease in part-time employment, down 9,900 people to
3,394,800.

Information is power, misleading information leads to confusion and
disappointment. This is the message being relayed by clan expert, Rodger
Moffet, who is warning that the miss-selling of clan merchandise is
damaging the Scottish economy and putting clan merchandising jobs at
risk. Mr. Moffet, CEO of ScotClans, the ‘guardians of clan heritage’ on the
internet, is warning that there are tough times ahead for traditional
‘clan’ businesses unless something is done, and quickly.
