HC Deb 09 March 1982 vol 19 cc364-5W
Mr. Edwin Wainwright

asked the Secretary of State for Employment how many applications have been received under the in-plant training scheme in the Mexborough travel-to-work area since the scheme commenced; what is the total value of assistance given; and how many persons are expected to benefit from training under the scheme.

Mr. Morrison

In-plant training is provided by the Manpower Services Commission under its direct training services. Since 1979—the earliest date for which figures are available for individual travel-to-work areas—there have been four applications in the Mexborough travel-to-work area for in-plant training under the training within industry scheme and one application under the mobile instructor scheme. At current price levels the total cost of this training would have been £2,725. Thirty-nine people received training under these schemes.
