HC Deb 07 December 1972 vol 847 cc494-5W
Mr. Urwin

asked the Secretary of State for Employment if he is satisfied with the standard and methods of training of scaffolders in Government-sponsored training establishments; and if he will make a statement.

Mr. Chichester-Clark

Training in scaffolding is provided at the Construction Industry Training Board's centre at Mitcham. My Department sponsors some trainees on courses there under the Training Opportunities Scheme and considers that the training they receive is of satisfactory standard.
