HC Deb 31 October 1988 vol 139 c546W
Mr. Wigley

To ask the Secretary of State for Wales how many people were on YTS in each of the constituencies of Wales at the most recent convenient date.

Mr. Wyn Roberts

[holding answer 28 October 1988]: Figures for YTS trainees are not available on a constituency basis. The training agency in Wales provides statistics on an area office basis only which refer to the area in which training takes place, rather than that in which the trainee lives.

At the end of September 1988 the numbers in training in Wales were 25,791. In South and Mid Glamorgan 7,863, in Gwent 4,395, in West Glamorgan and Dyfed 6.928 and in Gwynedd, Clwyd and Powys 6,605.
