HC Deb 18 December 1972 vol 848 cc275-6W
Mr. Golding

asked the Secretary of State for Employment whether he will make daily travelling grants available to young persons unable to find employment in their own locality.

Mr. Dudley Smith

No. My Department operates transfer schemes to enable young people who are unable to find suitable employment in their own locality to move to other areas and we think this preferable to assisting them to undertake excessively long and tiring daily journeys.
