HC Deb 26 July 1983 vol 46 c357W
Ms. Richardson

asked the Secretary of State for Employment how many young people in Barking who left school in 1982 are engaged on the various training schemes for the young unemployed at the present date.

Mr. Peter Morrison

About 100 1982 school leavers are currently on the youth opportunities programme in Barking. During 1983–84 it is anticipated that 1,300 1983 school leavers in Barking will enter the youth training scheme, some of them in adjacent boroughs, reflecting normal travel-to-work patterns in the area.
