HC Deb 24 July 1984 vol 64 cc545-6W
Mrs. Renée Short

asked the Secretary of State for Education and Science how much saving he expects to achieve by the transfer of the control of funding of non-advanced further education courses to the Manpower Services Commission.

I look to all authorities to do their utmost to contain their pay and other costs, to manage their resources efficiently and to take every opportunity to redeploy them so as to improve educational standards—an objective the Government shares with the local authorities.
