Mr. Heddle

asked the Secretary of State for Employment (1) how many workers are in section 2 employment; how many are on the waiting list; and what is the number of vacancies;

(2) if he will list the names and addresses of all the sheltered workshops, known to his Department, in the United Kingdom;

(3) how many new places in sheltered employment are planned for the next five years; and whether any programme expansion has been stopped or delayed because of the Government's policy of cutting public expenditure;

(4) what is the per capita cost per annum for persons in sheltered employment.

Mr. Jim Lester

I shall reply to my hon. Friend as soon as possible.
