Abstract
The background to the White Paper proposals for changes in the organisation of skilled training, published in December 1981, is to be found six months earlier in a detailed Review by the Manpower Services Commission (MSC) of the workings of the Employment and Training Act of 1973. That Review concluded that ‘current training arrangements have made little advance in securing fundamental reforms of training’ (paragraph 4.34), and that ‘in general, in the traditional crafts, it is still the passage of time rather than objectively assessed performance standards, which decides whether a trainee is accepted as skilled’ (paragraph 4.16).Keywords
