HC Deb 05 November 1999 vol 337 c358W
Mr. Willis

To ask the Secretary of State for Education and Employment what plans he has to make the University for Industry learning hubs co-terminus with regional development agency or sub-regional local learning and skills/small business service boundaries; and if he will make a statement. [97056]

Mr. Wills

[holding answer 2 November 1999]: It is Ufl Ltd.'s intention that as far as possible the boundaries of the Ufl hubs will be co-terminus with either sub-regional Learning and Skills Council and Small Business Service boundaries or with local Learning Partnership boundaries. It may not be possible to map this in every case but Ufl Regional Staff are working closely with Ufl hubs to ensure that a high level of coherence is achieved.
