§ Mr. Richard Wainwrightasked the Secretary of State for Employment if he has any plans to extend the enterprise allowance scheme; and if he will make a statement.
§ Mr. Peter Morrison:Any decision to extend the enterprise allowance scheme will depend on the results of the current pilot trials. The results we have seen so far are encouraging but they are very much first impressions and we cannot give any promise that the scheme will be extended to other areas.
