LSC deciding on the answer before it asks the question

I've just had an immensely frustrating and unrewarding telephone interview from LSC.  It would take 10 minutes they said (it actually took an hour), it would inform the LSC on training requirements of small business (it didn't because there was nowhere to add what my requirements are) and it would influence skills development (it won't because the questions were loaded to protect the LSC).

Questions like .... Because of the recession, are you spending more or less on training   ... are loaded because whether you spend more or less on training is not as a result of the recession.

And then one has to ask why LSC are doing this, I suspect it's to justify an existence which is seriously under threat.  Perhaps they should be spending the money they have spent on this ridiculous survey on funding some post 16 education.
