HC Deb 10 December 1976 vol 922 c387W
Mr. Moonman

asked the Secretary of State for Education and Science what amount of funds is allocated from her Department's budget for counselling in staff training and improved meeting performance.

Mr. Oakes

It is not possible to identify the true cost of counselling in staff training because the total comprises many elements of which the direct costs, attributable to a training vote, forms only a small part. The machinery for annual staff reporting and job assessment reviews help the Departmental training officer to arrange courses of instruction to meet training needs identified by line managers in al parts of the Department.
