§ Ms WardTo ask the Secretary of State for Education and Employment if he will list the locations of the pilot projects for the Connexions Service; and if he will make a statement. [120848]
§ Mr. Wicks[pursuant to his reply, 16 May 2000, c. 101W]: One of the pilot areas was inadvertently omitted. The correct response is as follows.
I am pleased to announce the extension of the Connexions Service pilots. New pilots are to be established in Lincolnshire, Durham, Hertfordshire, Central London, Oldham, Merseyside, South Yorkshire, and at the Huntercombe Youth Offenders Institution in Oxfordshire. These are additional to the pilots announced by the Secretary of State on 3 February.
