The number of people out of work in Northern Ireland has fallen, according to the Department for the Economy.
It says the unemployment rate fell by nought-point-three-percent in the last quarter.
However, it said there had been an eighty-six percent rise in the number of confirmed redundancies over the last year to 31 January 2017. Last month alone 210 people were made redundant.
The number of people claiming unemployment related benefits stands at just over thirty-one thousand. That figure is a fall of 1'000 from December 2016.
