Business question from Harriett Baldwin (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 15 December 2011. It occurred during Business statement on Business of the House.
Business of the House
Given the media headlines yesterday on young people's unemployment, it is easy to forget that young people aged 18 to 24 have experienced high unemployment as a percentage of the population since 2006—for many years now. It is obviously a structural issue, so may we have a debate on how we can help young people's aspirations? I hope that we could debate in a non-partisan way measures such as those incorporated into the youth contract and take into account the cross-party report on the future jobs fund published by the Select Committee on Work and Pensions.
