HC Deb 18 November 1981 vol 13 c158W
Mr. McMahon

asked the Secretary of State for Scotland how many youth opportunities programme appointments have been taken up in the Glasgow area; how many of these are in the Govan area of the city of Glasgow; and, of the total, how many have resulted in offers by employers of a full-time engagement.

Mr. Alexander Fletcher

At the end of August 1981—the latest date for which information is available-5,500 young people were taking part in the youth opportunities programme in the Glasgow education division of Strathclyde. Information on the numbers in specific areas of Glasgow and on the subsequent employment of participants is not available.
