HC Deb 12 January 1977 vol 923 c519W
Mr. Rooker

asked the Secretary of State for Employment if he has given further consideration to reintroducing compulsory notification of job vacancies.

Mr. Golding,

pursuant to his reply [Official Report, 11th January 1977], gave the following information:

Yes, but I am informed by the Manpower Services Commission that the possibility of reintroducing compulsory notification of vacancies has been reviewed many times in recent years. The view is taken that no significant advantages are likely to be gained by such a step.
