HC Deb 09 February 1989 vol 146 c797W
Mr. Jack

To ask the Secretary of State for Employment if he will make a statement on the part being played by the employment training programme in training the unemployed for jobs in the tourism industry.

Mr. Nicholls

Employment training is playing a valuable part in training unemployed people for jobs in tourism. Several training managers in tourist areas have identified placements with employers in the tourism industry, and are already helping trainees to get training in hotels and catering and related leisure activities. I am pleased with the progress so far.
