§ Mr. Pardoeasked the Secretary of State for Employment what proportion of the working population is now in full-time or part-time vocational training in the United Kingdom, in Cornwall, and the EEC, respectively.
§ Mr. GoldingI am informed by the Manpower Services Commission that the 725W only broadly comparable figures avail-able are those of a sample survey con-ducted in early 1975 by the EEC. These indicate that approximately 5.6 per cent. of the working population in the United Kingdom were in full-time or part-time vocational training at that date as against approximately 5.4 per cent. of the working population of the EEC as a whole. Figures for Cornwall are not readily available.
