HC Deb 17 June 1998 vol 314 cc212-3W
Mr. Dismore

To ask the Secretary of State for Education and Employment what arrangements are in place for the ongoing ethnic monitoring of the progress of those placed on one of the New Deal options; and if he will make a statement. [45437]

Mr. Andrew Smith

We have arrangements in place to provide comprehensive management information on the participation of ethnic minorities in New Deal. Our evaluation strategy will also enable us to determine the final destinations of all New Deal clients including those from ethnic minorities.
