Youth Training Scheme

Mr. Peter Bruinvels
asked the Secretary of State for Employment how many young people are on youth training schemes within the city of Leicester; how many companies are supporting the youth training scheme in Leicester; and if he will give the number of companies and young people involved in each month since the scheme began.

Mr. Peter Morrison
[pursuant to his reply, 28 March 1985, c. 293]: Information for the city of Leicester is not available. The table shows the number of young people in  training on the youth training scheme in the Leicester local authority district at the end of each month since the scheme began.-----------

Information on the number of companies taking part in the youth training scheme is not available. However, it is estimated that training under the scheme takes place in some 650 locations in the Leicester local authority district (but not all of these will be in companies).
