HC Deb 14 July 1994 vol 246 c739W
Mr. Allen

To ask the Secretary of State for Employment how he intends to ensure that adequate training provision is made for young people with special needs under the commitment to youth training made in the White Paper, "Competitiveness: Helping Business to Win".

Miss Widdecombe

The White Paper "Competitiveness: Helping Business to Win" restates the Government's commitment to the guarantee of a suitable training place to all 16 and 17-year-old school leavers who are unable to find a job and are seeking training. The guarantee is delivered locally by training and enterprise councils and meets the needs of individuals whatever their ability or training needs.
