HC Deb 25 May 1993 vol 225 c519W
17. Dr. Wright

To ask the Secretary of State for Employment how many schemes for the unemployed have been introduced since 1979.

Mrs. Gillian Shephard

This information is not held centrally, and could be obtained only at disproportionate cost. At present, unemployed people are offered the greatest ever range of help—over 1.5 million employment and training opportunities in 1993–94.
