HC Deb 09 May 1989 vol 152 c375W
Mr. Harry Greenway

To ask the Secretary of State for Employment how many people have so far been accepted for training under the ET programme; at what cost; and if he will make a statement.

Mr. Nicholls

By 28 April, 275,000 people had started on employment training. The cost for each trainee will be about £2,300. It is a remarkable achievement that so many people have been helped by the most successful training programme for adults ever run by the Government.
