HC Deb 21 December 1982 vol 34 c439W
28. Mr. Needham

asked the Secretary of State for Employment when last he met the chairman of the Manpower Services Commission to discuss the public employment service.

Mr. Peter Morrison

My right hon. Friend and I talk very frequently to the chairman of the Manpower Services Commission about the public employment service. We are concerned to ensure that we get the best possible value for the large sums of taxpayers' money spent on the service, and to reduce costs wherever that is possible.
