Ms. Short

To ask the Secretary of State for Employment if she will list by region and for Great Britain as a whole, shown separately for males and females how many 16 and 17-year-olds were in receipt of extended child benefit, how many were in receipt of bridging allowance for each month since September 1991 and how many young people in each region and in Great Britain exhausted their entitlement to youth training bridging allowance; and if she will make a statement.

Mr. McLoughlin

Questions on operational matters in the Employment Service executive agency are the responsibility of the agency's chief executive, to whom I have referred this question for reply.
