HC Deb 16 June 1982 vol 25 c291W
Mr. Eastham

asked the Secretary of State for the Environment what reply he is sending to the town clerk of Manchester in response to his letter of 14 May about the falling level of apprentice intake in the direct works department from 140 in 1979 to 60 in 1981.

Mr. Stanley

This is being considered, but I will send the hon. Member a copy of the reply that is sent.
