HC Deb 22 February 1973 vol 851 cc175-6W
Mr. Bishop

asked the Secretary of State for Employment if, in view of the need for retraining of the unemployed persons in the Newark and Lincoln areas, he will establish more training centres in the area in the near future.

Mr. Chichester-Clark

There are no plans for a new Government training centre in the Newark and Lincoln areas, but they will benefit from the general expansion of industrial training under the training opportunities scheme. Sixty places are already available in local col- leges and employers' establishments. I am keeping the needs of the areas under constant review.
