§ Mr. Kenneth Clarke[pursuant to his reply, 5 February 1987]: In accordance with the arrangements proposed by the Manpower Services Commission, area manpower boards will receive full information on the scheme as it develops in their areas so that they can monitor, assess and evaluate progress, and advise on likely demand. Boards will be consulted on the development of approved training organisation (adult) status, and will, in due course, be asked to advise on whether managing agents should be given such status.
