HC Deb 13 July 1972 vol 840 cc415-6W
Mr. Alexander Wilson

asked the Secretary of State for Employment if there is provision for special training places for disabled persons in each Government training centre in Scotland; and how many places are available.

Mr. Chichester-Clark

Places are not specially reserved in Government Training Centres for disabled people capable of taking up ordinary employment. Nevertheless, such disabled people are encouraged to apply for suitable courses and they constitute about 10 per cent. of the total numbers in training in Government Training Centres in Scotland.
