HC Deb 07 February 1984 vol 53 c554W
51. Mr. Campbell-Savours

asked the Secretary of State for Education and Science whether he will review the financial support arrangements for 16 and 17-year-olds in education and training.

Sir Keith Joseph

I shall continue to keep under general review the question of financial support for 16 to 19-year-old students, though I see no prospect of a change in the present arrangements in the foreseeable future. Support for 16 and 17-year-olds on training schemes is a matter for my right hon. Friend the Secretary of State for Employment.
