HC Deb 16 July 1991 vol 195 cc129-30W
Mr. Sillars

To ask the Secretary of State for Scotland how many(a) applications and (b) available places for youth training there have been in Strathclyde this year; and if he will make a statement.

Mr. Allan Stewart

The information sought is not collected centrally. It is unlikely to be available from any source in the form requested, partly because there is no standard application process and partly because provision is calculated on the basis of the number of trainee weeks available rather than the number of places.

Mr. Heseltine

I have failed to persuade the Labour party to put the interests of citizens and consumers above the interest of trade unions and producers.
