On the broader issue of the down-turn in overall apprenticeships, ACT and Commonwealth Government officials have been working on a set of proposals which will take maximum advantage of the programs announced in the Federal Governments Economic Statement of March 12 in ways which address the ACTs particular requirements.

The package includes:

(a) programs for assistance to unemployed or at-risk apprentices/trainees,

(b) re-establishment grants for unemployed

apprentices/trainees,

programs for pre-vocational training (including pre-trade) for young people seeking to enter the work-force.

The Government is awaiting further advice from the Commonwealth on the ACTs allocation of funds.
