Mr. Leighton
To ask the Secretary of State for Employment what is the relationship between TECs and compacts.
Mr. Jackson
TECs, with local education authority agreement, may take up contracts for existing compacts currently held with my Department. Additionally, TECs will be asked to establish compacts in those remaining urban programme authority areas in England which are not currently covered by compact arrangements.
