§ Mr. Thomas Coxasked the Secretary of State for Employment if it is planned to increase the number of training centres to cover the Greater London Council area.
§ Mr. Peter MorrisonNo. I am, however, informed by the Manpower Services Commission that its skillcentre programme provides for a new skillcentre to be opened at Deptford during 1982 coincident with the rundown and closure of Poplar skillcentre and the annexe to Charlton skillcentre.
