HC Deb 08 March 1982 vol 19 c322W
Mr. Mudd

asked the Secretary of State for Employment what is the estimated number of training opportunities scheme courses planned for the county of Cornwall for 1982; and how many of these will deal with electronics or other new technologies.

Mr. Peter Morrison

Present plans for the financial year 1982–83 envisage that 483 adults will enter training courses under the training opportunities scheme in Cornwall. Although some may receive elements of training covering electronic applications as part of their courses, there are no courses specifically concerned with electronics or other new technologies. Electronics courses are however available in Plymouth and Torquay and suitably qualified people from all parts of the country may apply for places on all higher level TOPS electronics courses.
