HC Deb 13 May 1981 vol 4 c285W
22. Mr. Ernie Ross

asked the Secretary of State for Scotland if he will take further steps to alleviate unemployment in the age group 16-to-18 years and 18-to-25 years in the Dundee district.

Mr. Alexander Fletcher

Young people of these age groups in Dundee will benefit from the expansion of the youth opportunities programme and the introduction of the new community enterprise programme. The creation of new and permanent jobs is being encouraged both by the city's special development area status and by the activities of the Scottish Development Agency, which has instituted a major indstrial development programme there.
