Proceeding contribution from Baroness Harman (Labour) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 15 October 2009. It occurred during Business statement on Business of the House.
Business of the House
There are about 2 million more people in jobs than there were in 1997. As I have said, although there is still growing unemployment, the rate of increase is down. The regional Committees provide a very important opportunity to scrutinise the work of regional development agencies and Government Departments within a region to ensure economic prosperity in that region. I suggest that the hon. Gentleman pursues this issue on the regional Committee.
