HC Deb 19 March 1987 vol 112 c578W
Mr. Wareing

asked the Paymaster General how many people have been inteviewed at Merseyside jobcentres for the job training scheme since its commencement; and how many of these have been found work.

Mr. Kenneth Clarke

I refer the hon. Member to my reply to him of 12 March, which explained that the new scheme is not even scheduled to begin in Merseyside until April 1987.

Mr. Pike

asked the Paymaster General what is the latest estimated financial provision for the new job training scheme for 1987–88; what percentage of that money is additional to existing funding; and how much will be transferred from other projects at present financed by the Manpower Services Commission.

Mr. Kenneth Clarke

[pursuant to his reply, 18 March 1987]: Details of expenditure for 1987–88 are set out in Class VII, Vote 5, section L of the Supply Estimates, published on 17 March.
