HC Deb 26 June 1996 vol 280 c159W
32. Ms Coffey

To ask the Secretary of State for Education and Employment what representations she has received regarding the introduction of vouchers for 16 to 19-year-olds in education and training. [33230]

Mr. Paice

None. The Government have no plans to introduce vouchers for 16 to 19-year-olds in education and training. We have announced our intention to consult on the introduction from 1997 of a system of learning credits. These will set out for all 16 to 19-year-olds their entitlement to the education and training they choose.
