Specifically. for the Job Training Partnership Act [JTPAI. a total of $3.724 billion is provided. of which $215.9 million will be allocated to New York. This program. the replacement to CETA. establishes a national public/private partnership with business and industry to train and retrain disadvantaged workers. Of this $215 million. $123.5 million is provided for the Disadvantaged Youth Program under title IIA. $57.5 million for summer youth programs under IIB. $10.4 million for dislocated workers under III. $1.9 million for Native Americans under IV. $1.4 million for migrants and farmworkers. $22.9 million for the Job Corps. $475.000 for veterans programs and a national total of $58.3 million for national activities. I am especially pleased that the committee has responded in a generousand appropriate fashion to address the need to provide added funding for State activities with respect to the Occupational Safety and Health Act. The $1.9 million in this bill will allow for an equal match of State funds in order to assist in the implementation of the OSHA State plan to 1 million of New Yorks public employees.
