HC Deb 29 March 1990 vol 170 c261W
Mr. O'Brien

To ask the Secretary of State for Employment if he will publish the names of the business people who are involved with the Wakefield training and enterprise council; and if he will give information as to their business interests.

Mr. Eggar

The Wakefield TEC is currently drawing up its corporate plan which will list the board of directors.

Mr. O'Brien

To ask the Secretary of State for Employment on what date the Wakefield training and enterprise council was established; what consultations took place with interested organisations including the trades councils and local authority; and if he will make a statement.

Mr. Eggar

An employer-led group was awarded development funding to establish a training and enterprise council in Wakefield on 25 January 1990. It is now preparing its corporate and business plans and I expect it to consult all relevant local interests in drawing up these Plans.

Mr. O'Brien

To ask the Secretary of State for Employment what amount of funds has been allocated to the Wakefield training and enterprise council for the current year.

Mr. Eggar

Development funding of £109,000 has been awarded to an employer-led group in Wakefield to set up a training and enterprise council for the area.
