HC Deb 07 July 1992 vol 211 cc120-1W
Mr. Dewar

To ask the Secretary of State for Scotland if he will list the figures, by region, in Scotland for youth training and employment training budgets for(a) 1991–92 and (b) 1992–93.

Mr. Lang

The outturn figures for 1991–92 and budgets for 1992–93 for Scottish Enterprise and Highlands and Islands Enterprise for youth training and adult training, subject to an adjustment to the 1991–92 outturn for adult training for Scottish Enterprise to make it compatible with the coverage of the 1992–93 budget, are as follows:

£'000
Scottish Enterprise Highlands and Islands Enterprise
1991–92 1992–93 1991–92 1992–93
Youth training 92,356 90,150 7,956 6,080
Adult training 99,940 93,567 6,566 5,655

These budgets cover a wider range of activities than the youth training and employment training schemes. The allocation of resources by Scottish Enterprise and Highlands and Islands Enterprise to local enterprise companies is an operational matter for these two bodies; and I have asked the chairmen to write to the hon. Member.
