LUCAS (14:32):</by>  Mr President, a supplementary question arising out of the answer: will the minister seek advice and bring back an answer to reconcile the fact that the chief executive at the time, Mr Ray Garrand, on 2 May 2013 wrote to the Budget and Finance Committee and in that correspondence indicated the baseline numbers pre Skills for All in 2010-11 for training places was 86,561, and will she take advice and bring back a reply to reconcile Mr Garrand's reply on 2 May 2013 with the figure that she is going to identify the source of 64,000 which she has claimed in this house?</text>
