§ Mr. Fauldsasked the Secretary of State for Industry if he intends to establish an Industrial Relations Training Resource Centre, as suggested in a recent report of the National Economic Development Office to improve training in industrial relations.
§ Mr. Harold WalkerI have been asked to reply.
The proposal to establish an Industrial Relations Training Resource Centre within the field of responsibility of the Training Services Agency was referred to and approved in principle by the Manpower Services Commission. I understand that the commission wishes to consider further the implications in terms of resources and the precise form the resource centre could take and may make recommendations to my right hon. Friend in due course.
