HC Deb 07 December 1987 vol 124 cc32-3W
Mr. Simon Hughes

To ask the Secretary of State for Employment if he will publish in theOfficial Report (a) the number and (b) the percentage of YTS trainees, in each London borough, for each year since the YTS began, who have obtained full-time jobs during or at the end of this period on that scheme.

Mr. Cope

The information is not available in the form requested. The Manpower Services Commission has conducted regular follow-up surveys of all YTS leavers since April 1985. The table shows the number and percentage of those who responded to the surveys and were in full-time jobs at the time of the surveys, for each London local authority district:
