§ Mr. Jon Owen JonesTo ask the Secretary of State for Wales what proposals he has to extend the system of publishing the results of academic examinations to examinations for vocational qualifications; and if he will make a statement.
§ Sir Wyn RobertsIn the main, vocational qualifications are gained through studies at further education colleges. We are not planning to publish Welsh Office statistics about examination achievements in colleges in Wales.
However, further education colleges have been asked to publish details of examination and assessment results and student destinations on a voluntary basis for the academic year 1991–92. We intend making regulations requiring the colleges to publish this information for the academic year 1992–93.
