17. Mr. Foulkes

To ask the Secretary of State for Scotland when he last met the chairmen of the enterprise companies in Scotland to discuss the funding of training programmes.

Mr. Stewart

My right hon. Friend and I frequently meet chairmen of local enterprise companies to discuss a range of economic development and training issues.

18. Mr. Ernie Ross

To ask the Secretary of State for Scotland when he last met the chairman of Scottish Enterprise to discuss training.

Mr. Stewart

My right hon. Friend and I met the chairman of Scottish Enterprise on 26 April 1993 to discuss a range of issues including training.

36. Mr. McKelvey

To ask the Secretary of State for Scotland what assessment he has made of the employment training programme in Kilmarnock and Loudoun and Ayrshire.

Mr. Stewart

This is a matter for Scottish Enterprise, which has a statutory duty to keep under continuous review the suitability and adequacy of such training where its provision is delegated to other bodies, such as local enterprise companies and their agents. Employment training was replaced by training for work on 1 April 1993.
