HC Deb 20 November 1984 vol 68 cc132-3W
17. Mr. Madden

asked the Secretary of State for Employment, what proposals he has to assist those aged under 18 years who have completed a one-year Manpower Services Commission scheme and who are unable to secure employment or return to full-time education or training.

Mr. Peter Morrison

The youth training scheme has proved a success in helping young people to find work or move into further training. Furthermore, the young workers scheme assists in reducing unemployment among young people through promoting more realistic wage levels.
