HC Deb 28 January 1970 vol 794 cc357-8W
Mr. Buchanan-Smith

asked the Secretary of State for Scotland how many students in North-East Scotland have completed City and Guilds Stage I classes in agriculture in each of the last three years but have subsequently been unable to start Stage II because classes are not available.

Mr. Ross

Not all students completing Stage I courses desire or are in a position to commence Stage II. No information is available for the reasons why students decided not to apply for entry to Stage II and accordingly it is not possible to give the number of those who so decided because of difficulties in attending classes.
