Proceeding contribution from Vincent Cable (Liberal Democrat) in the House of Commons on Monday, 5 March 2007. It occurred during Urgent question on Welfare Reform.

In view of the report’s welcome emphasis on flexibility in job search, will the Secretary of State consider some of the inflexible and rigid practices of Jobcentre Plus, such as the requirement to attend one-size-fits-all training courses that are often inappropriate and may often involve abandoning job interviews and part-time work search?
