    • 160 lower than the end of the previous quarter
    • 140 lower than the end of the corresponding quarter in 2016 (Q1 2016)
  • the non-seasonally adjusted ASW total was 1,180; this total is 100 lower than the end of the previous quarter, 200 lower than a year earlier and the lowest recorded in the last 6 years (since June 2010)
