Training Centres, Northern Region (Waiting Lists)

HC Deb 13 October 1969 vol 788 cc33-4W

73. Mr. Willey

asked the Secretary of State for Employment and Productivity what progress has been made in reducing the waiting list for entry into Government training centres in the northern region.

Mr. Dell

The number of applicants accepted and under consideration in Northern Region has fallen by 267 since March, 1969. This process will be accelerated when training starts at the new Durham and Darlington centres during the next few months.
