Data are not available on the number of national vocational qualifications awarded to individuals assessed at an overseas award centre.

Mr. Davies

To ask the Secretary of State for Eduction and Employment how many national vocational qualifications awarded by the end of December 1995 were gained by individuals on Government training schemes. [6938]

Mr. Paice

[holding answer 28 November 1996]: The information requested is not available. According to information from the youth training and training for work follow-up surveys, 41 per cent. of YT and 42 per cent. of TfW leavers respectively gained a full qualification in England and Wales in 1995 and a further 9 per cent. of YT and 7 per cent. of TfW leavers gained a part-qualification. Many of these will have been NVQs; however, in 1995, many predecessor qualifications were still in use.
