HC Deb 03 February 1987 vol 109 c609W
53. Mr. Litherland

asked the Paymaster General if he will make a statement on skill shortages in the construction industry.

Mr. Trippier

I am disappointed that, despite a statutory training levy, problems in fully meeting the skill needs of the industry are still occurring. My right hon. and learned Friend announced last week a major new initiative to help in the task of re-skilling Britain.
