HC Deb 23 February 1981 vol 999 c280W
Mr. Golding

asked the Secretary of State for Employment whether he will now introduce a scheme of employment subsidies for young people; and whether he will make a statement.

Mr. Peter Morrison

My right hon. Friend has no plans to introduce an employment subsidy scheme for young people. However, he announced on 21 November 1980 a major expansion of the youth opportunities programme to provide 440,000 work experience and training places for unemployed young people.
