HC Deb 26 April 2001 vol 367 c357W
31. Mr. Bill Michie

To ask the Secretary of State for Education and Employment if he will make a statement on his plans for new training facilities in Sheffield. [157942]

Mr. Wicks

This is a matter for the Learning and Skills Council. I have therefore asked John Harwood, the council's chief executive, to write to my hon. Friend with the information requested and to place a copy of his reply in the Library. However, Sheffield College will be in discussions with the LSC about the development of the new programme of Centres of Vocational Excellence, and new Technology Institutes. There has also been, as part of Excellence in Cities, the development of new City Learning Centres in the city.
