HC Deb 11 May 1989 vol 152 cc513-4W
Mr. John Evans

To ask the Secretary of State for Employment if he will make a further statement on the progress of employment training.

Mr. Nicholls

Employment training continues to grow faster than any other previous adult training programme. By 28 April, there were over 184,000 people in training. They clearly recognise the benefits the programme has to offer and the opportunity it provides to help them get a job.
