HC Deb 19 June 1986 vol 99 cc584-5W
Mr. Ashley

asked the Secretary of State for Education and Science if he proposes to establish a National Council for Vocational Qualifications.

Mr. Walden

The Government hope very shortly to announce their response to the recommendations of the review group on vocational qualifications. including the recommendations that a National Council for Vocational Qualifications be established. I cannot anticipate the details of that response, but I can say that the Government have welcomed the thoughtfulness and hard work of the review group and will be considering all its recommendations with great care.
