§ Mr. MaddenTo ask the Secretary of State for Employment how many staff from unemployment benefit112W offices and jobcentres in the Bradford travel-to-work area have undertaken training courses organised by Bradford resource centre since 1979.
§ Mr. LeeTraining for staff employed in unemployment benefit offices and jobcentres in the Bradford district is covered by courses provided internally by the employment service.
The Bradford resource centre is an external body funded by Bradford council which provides courses free of charge. Records of attendance on external courses are kept only if there is a cost to the employment service. It is therefore not possible to estimate the number of staff from unemployment benefit offices and jobcentres who may have attended courses at the centre.
