Youth Unemployment

Question
What programmes she has to assist unemployed young people into work.
Answer

I refer the hon. Gentleman to the answer to Question 3. [We are backing 470,000 additional youth opportunities, including through the £1 billion future jobs fund, as well as extra training and job opportunities. That is part of a youth guarantee, which is that all young people should be guaranteed a job, training or a work placement if they have been unemployed for more than six months].
