Mr. John David Taylorasked the Secretary of State for Northern Ireland what is the comparative cost of educating (a) a YTP student, (b) a BTEC student and (c) a GCE O-level student in Northern Ireland's further education colleges; and if these courses have been the 97W subject of discussion between the Northern Ireland Office and the Government of the Republic of Ireland at a meeting of the Anglo-Irish Ministerial Conference.
§ Dr. Mawhinney[pursuant to his reply, 3 July 1987, c. 188]: The information about comparative costs is not available. The joint statements issued after each meeting of the Intergovernmental Conference do not record these courses as having been discussed.
