Oral question asked in the House of Commons, by Philip Hollobone (Conservative). It was answered on Tuesday, 21 June 2011 on behalf of the Treasury.


Budget (June 2010)

Question
The incentives for job creation in the June 2010 and subsequent Budgets are to be welcomed, but given that for every 10 new jobs eight go to foreign-born workers, what more can be done to encourage the employment of the indigenous work force?
Answer

As my hon. Friend knows, one of the key aspects of the Budget this year was to launch ““The Plan for Growth””. A key part of that was to provide for more apprenticeships and more work experience so that we can make sure that people in this country have the right skills that companies in this country need.
