HC Deb 03 February 1972 vol 830 c166W
64. Mr. Mayhew

asked the Secretary of State for Employment if he will now extend his experimental work scheme for young unemployed beyond the development and intermediate areas.

Mr. Dudley Smith

In view of the many problems involved in a scheme of this kind, it is not advisable to consider extending its scope until practical experience of it has been gained.

83. Mr. Willey

asked the Secretary of State for Employment if he will make a statement on the details of the experimental work scheme centred on Sunderland.

Mr. Dudley Smith

I cannot comment on the details of the experimental works scheme centred on Sunderland, as the responsibility for running the scheme rests with the National Association of Youth Clubs. However, I understand that recruitment of staff for the schemes in Sunderland is in progress.
