Mr. Dobson

To ask the Secretary of State for Employment, pursuant to the answer of 2 June,Official Report, columns 469-70, if she will make a statement on the reasons for her Department's spending on advertising and promotion being expected to fall between 1991–92 and 1992–93.

Mr. Michael Forsyth

[holding answer 12 June 1992]: Advertising and publicity expenditure, subject to the Department's overall public expenditure survey settlement, is determined for each financial year on the basis of prevailing requirements to publicise the services and advice provided by the Department.

Expenditure for 1991–92 included two major advertising campaigns, (a) the training and enterprise council training campaign to publicise the role and existence of the new network of training and enterprise councils and (b) the "Just the Job" campaign to inform unemployed people about the range of help and advice available through the Employment Service. No major advertising campaigns are planned by the Department during 1992–93.
