(a) a person using facilities provided under the Training for Work programme and receiving training allowances in connection with the use of the facilities shall be treated as participating in arrangements for training under section 2 of the Employment and Training Act 1973 (c. 50). Any payment made to such a person in connection with his use of those facilities shall be treated in the same manner as a payment made in respect of such training; andE+W+S
