§ Mr. StewartResponsibility for the ET and YT leavers follow-up survey was transferred from the Training Agency to Scottish Enterprise and Highlands and Islands Enterprise on 1 April 1991. The Department of Employment was contracted to deliver the service on their behalf until 1 April 1993 when the enterprise bodies introduced their own follow-up systems.
