§ Mr. J. H. Osbornasked the Secretary of State for Employment and Productivity what is the Government's policy towards the consultative document circulated by his Department on the future of the employment service.
§ Mr. R. CarrThe Government attach great importance to the improvement of the employment service as resources become available. Without therefore being committed to the proposals we would find it very helpful in formulating policy to have comments on the Consultative Document from the bodies to which it was sent. We hope accordingly that they will let us have any views they may wish to express on the proposals outlined in the Document and the future of the youth employment service.
