§ Mr. Bulmerasked the Secretary of State for Education and Science what resources are being devoted within his Department to research into future patterns of employment; what results have been obtained from this research; and if he will place in the Library a list of the research, wherever carried out, of which his Department is aware and considers useful into future patterns of employment.
§ Mr. William SheltonThe responsibility within the Government for research into labour markets lies with the Department of Employment and the Manpower Services Commission. The Department of Education and Science is aware of such research and of studies made elsewhere, but does not itself undertake research in this field.
