§ Mr. RooneyTo ask the Secretary of State for Employment what criteria were set for Bradford TEC for training needs in 1991–92; what targets have been set; and if he will make a statement.
Mr. JacksonThe training needs identified by Bradford and District TEC are based on a thorough assessment of the local labour market. Their plans include challenging targets which have been agreed with my Department covering a range of training and enterprise activities. Bradford and District TEC has developed a number of interesting initiatives, including Jobsmatch 1000. The aim of the initiative is to help 1,000 unemployed people in inner city areas to obtain a job within two years.
