HC Deb 01 February 1994 vol 236 c672W
29. Mr. Ottaway

To ask the Secretary of State for Education what recent representations he has had from employers about national education and training targets.

Mr. Boswell

My right hon. Friend welcomes the continuing support from employers for the national education and training targets. He shares the view expressed to him by employers that the challenge presented by the targets must be met if the country is to remain competitive in the international marketplace.
