HC Deb 06 November 1979 vol 973 c119W
27. Mr. Haslehurst

asked the Secretary of State for Employment whether he is satisfied with the present relationship between the Manpower Services Commission and the industrial training boards.

Mr. Jim Lester

The relationship to which my hon. Friend refers is a complex one, not least because of the differing characteristics of the individual boards and the industries which they serve. I am informed by the Manpower Services Commission that this question will be among those to be considered in the review which it has instituted of the industrial training aspects of the Employment and Training Act 1973.
