Mr. Clay

asked the Secretary of State for Employment whether he will make a statement on the future operation of the job-splitting scheme.

Mr. Alan Clark

As my right hon. Friend announced on 12 November 1984 at col444, we are continuing the job-splitting scheme in 1985–86 with an increased grant and with further changes to make it more attractive to employers. The details of the proposed changes will be announced in the very near future.
