HC Deb 18 February 1981 vol 999 cc143-4W
Mr. Ray Powell

asked the Secretary of State for Wales how many persons are receiving training in new skills at Government training centres; and if he will review the adequacy of training facilities now available, given the level of industrial restructuring which will be necessary in Wales.

Mr. Nicholas Edwards

1,244 on 26 January 1981. Industrial training is primarily the responsibility of industry but my right hon. Friend the Secretary of State for Employment has already announced that, together with the Manpower Services Commission, he intends to publish a consultative document putting forward proposals for future training arrangements both for adults and young people.
