HC Deb 13 December 1968 vol 775 c220W
Mr. Rose

asked the Secretary of State for Employment and Productivity, what action has been taken by the Central Training Council and the industrial training boards to see that training is provided for staff engaged in exporting.

Mr. Hattersley

A report by the Central Training Council's Commercial and Clerical Training Committee entitled "Training of Export Staff" will be published (by H.M.S.O.) on 16th December. This is a practical analysis of exporting activities and the training appropriate to them, and it should make an important contribution towards improving our export performance. A joint committee of industrial training boards has already been set up to put its recommendations into effect as a matter of urgency.
