HC Deb 14 May 1987 vol 116 c309W
Mr. Evennett

asked the Paymaster General what representations he has received concerning the funding by the Manpower Services Commission of community programme schemes in Bexley; and if he will make a statement.

I have received no representations concerning the funding by the Manpower Services Commission of community programme schemes in Bexley. The local area manpower board met on 6 March and approved the distribution of places for 1987–88.
