Department on the youth training scheme and the job release scheme; and how these compare with the sums allocated for each.

Mr. Gummer

The total sums allocated in 1983–84 to these schemes are as follows:

£million
Youth training scheme 914
Job release scheme 304

It is not usual practice to provide interim forecasts of expenditure because of the inevitable fluctuations in forecasts. However, both schemes are likely to show actual expenditure below the sums allocated because the expected number of participants is lower than anticipated.
