HC Deb 08 August 1980 vol 990 c350W
Mr. Ray Powell

asked the Secretary of State for Wales what plans he has to improve or extend the job training facilities in Wales; and what present opportunities are afforded for the young unemployed.

Mr. Nicholas Edwards

Training remains primarily the responsibility of industry. In addition, during 1980–81 a higher number of young people in Wales than ever before—about 23,000—are expected to benefit from the training and work experience opportunities provided under the expanded youth opportunities programme.
