HC Deb 17 April 1986 vol 95 cc488-9W
Mr. Greenway

asked the Paymaster General if he will make a statement on the future of Perivale skillcentre.

Mr. Trippier

The Manpower Services Commission's lease on Perivale skillcentre is due to expire in 1990. It is possible that it will not be renewed. For this and other reasons the skills training agency has commissioned a study into the nature, size and location of its whole skillcentre provision in north London after this date. The long term future of Perivale skillcentre will depend on the findings of this study, which will shortly become available. A copy will be sent to my hon. Friend so that he will have a chance to comment before a decision is reached, and I will also arrange for copies to be placed in the Library.
