Abstract

Youth Training Scheme. The most important event in the manpower field over the past four weeks has been the publication of the MSC plans for its Youth Training Scheme which came out on 4 May. An element of confusion has been introduced into the topic owing to the fact that there are two top‐level bodies with their fingers in the pie: on the one hand there is the Government speaking through the Employment Minister and his Department; on the other there is the ‘independent’ Manpower Services Commission. Both speak with immense authority though it is the Government, in the person of Norman Tebbit, which has the ultimate upper hand.
