HC Deb 06 August 1980 vol 990 cc118-9W
Mr. Speller

asked the Secretary of State for Employment if he will consider winding-up the Road Transport Industry Training Board.

Mr. Jim Lester

The future arrangements for promoting training in industry and commerce are being considered in the context of consultation which are being held following the publication by the Manpower Services Commission on 31 July of the report of the review body on industrial training aspects of the Employment and Training Act 1973. The commission will give its view following a further discussion which is planned for the end of October. The future of the Road Transport Industry Training Board will be considered at that time, along with that of other industry training boards.
