HC Deb 27 November 1989 vol 162 c128W
Mr. McFall

To ask the Secretary of State for Employment what proposals he has to protect young people while at work.

Mr. Nicholls

The health and safety of virtually all employees, regardless of age, is fully protected by the Health and Safety at Work etc. Act 1974 and its relevant statutory provisions. This includes young people on training courses designated under the Health and Safety (Training for Employment) (Amendment) Regulations 1989.
