HC Deb 22 April 1986 vol 96 cc108-9W
50. Mr. Fatchett

asked the Paymaster General to what extent new job creation measures announced recently by his Department will involve training in new technologies.

Mr. Trippier

It is not possible to assess the extent to which the measures to encourage enterprise and employment announced in the Budget will lead to jobs involving training in new technologies.

66. Mr. Weetch

asked the Paymaster General when he next intends meeting representatives of the Confederation of British Industry to discuss employment prospects in the new technologies.

Mr. Kenneth Clarke

Ministers in this Department meet CBI representatives frequently to discuss matters of mutual interest. We have no plans at present to convene a meeting specifically on this subject.
