26. Mr. Raffan

To ask the Secretary of State for Wales if he will make a statement on the establishment of the proposed training and enterprise councils in Wales.

Mr. Wyn Roberts

The Government will shortly be inviting local groups, led by employers, to submit proposals for the establishment of training and enterprise councils in England and Wales. A national training task force will advise on the establishment of TECs in England and Wales, and my right hon. Friend will be appointing a separate body to advise him on training and related enterprise and education matters, including the establishment of TECs, in the Principality.
