Mr. Wall

asked the Secretary of State for Employment, how many copies of Conservative Monthly News are pur-

concerning the payment of temporary employment subsidy in the public sector.

Mr. Golding

The criteria applied to organisations, within the public sector, which operate as ordinary industrial or commercial enterprises, and which exceptionally may apply for TES, are as follows:

  • (a) that the organisation is operating wholly or mainly as an ordinary industrial or commercial business undertaking;
  • (b) that it has no direct access to Government funds for the purpose of supporting employment;
  • (c) that it is able to operate a completely independent employment policy;
  • (d) that in view of the sponsoring Department the organisation should be able to qualify for TES on the same terms and conditions as an ordinary employer.
