§ 2. Mr. Robin F. Cookasked the Secretary of State for Employment when he hopes to make a statement on his consultations on sheltered employment for the disabled.
§ Mr. BoothIt is too early to say. These consultations have been extensive and are not yet complete.
§ 31. Mr. Carter-Jonesasked the Secretary of State for Employment if he is now in a position to publish his policy on sheltered and other forms of employment for the disabled; and if he will make a statement.
§ Mr. BoothAs I pointed out in answer to my hon. Friend the Member for Edinburgh, Central (Mr. Cook), consultations about the future of sheltered employment are still in progress. I regret therefore I am not yet in a position to make a statement.
