HC Deb 21 July 1987 vol 120 c158W
34. Mr. Ernie Ross

asked the Secretary of State for Employment how many full-time jobs he estimates have been created in Dundee as a result of the various pilot projects initiated by his Department in Dundee.

Mr. Lee

The pilot projects initiated by my Department in Dundee, which include the new job training scheme, restart and jobstart, are not job creation schemes; they are designed to give training, advice or other help to long-term unemployed people to enable them to compete more effectively in the labour market.
