HC Deb 23 November 1982 vol 32 c432W
55. Mr. Renton

asked the Secretary of State for Employment whether he will extend the financial support for job-splitting schemes to encourage the creation of new part-time jobs.

Mr. Alison

The Government's new job-splitting scheme, which will start on 3 January 1983, will support the splitting of full-time jobs which have existed for at least three months before an application is made. The scheme is experimental and will be kept under review to consider the possible scope for further development.
