HC Deb 09 December 1985 vol 88 c541W
Mr. Wainwright

asked the Paymaster General what funds he is providing for the youth training scheme to continue the special quality of supervision and training hitherto associated with mode B of the youth training scheme.

Mr. Peter Bottomley

Mode B1 of the current youth training scheme comprises community projects, training workshops and information technology centres. Under the two-year youth training scheme from April 1986, community projects and training workshops will generally be eligible for the premium rate of funding, totalling £270 per trainee per month, in addition to the standard annual managing agent's fee of £110 per contracted place. They may also be eligible for transitional funding of up to £70 per filled premium place per month in 1986–87. The funding of information technology centres is the subject of a separate review.
