HC Deb 28 February 1968 vol 759 c391W
Mr. Bryant Godman Irvine

asked the Minister of Labour, if he will consider amending paragraph 1, Schedule 1 to Statutory Instrument 1966, No. 1347, to exempt from assessment for levy an establishment which has shown a loss on its trading account for three years and which is of such a character that it is unable to benefit from the work of the Hotel and Catering Industry Training Board.

Mr. Gunter:

I see considerable difficulty in such a proposal, and have in any case no power to vary employers' liabilities under the current levy order. But I am prepared to refer to the Board any case the hon. Member may have in mind.
