Mr. Allan Stewart

[holding answer 14 December 1990]: The information is not available in the form requested. Information about leavers is obtained through a survey and returns from leavers are incomplete. This survey provides data on a quarterly basis as set out below about the percentages of people leaving employment training. In considering the information it is important to bear in mind that entering permanent employment is a major reason for people ceasing to participate in employment training.

Up to 4 weeks per cent. Over 4 weeks up to 3 months per cent. Over 3 months up to 6 months per cent. Over 6 months up to 9 months per cent. Over 9 months up to 12 months per cent. Over 12 months per cent.
