HC Deb 09 January 1985 vol 70 cc468-9W
Mr. Sheerman

asked the Secretary of State for Employment how many young people are presently participating on schemes run by the Manpower Services Commission which are broadly similar to those run by community industry.

Mr. Peter Morrison

Young people with personal and social disadvantages participate in both the youth training scheme and the community programme. But statistics are not kept which would enable a valid comparison to be made with those employed on the community industry scheme.
