Proceeding contribution from Baroness Verma (Conservative) in the House of Lords on Thursday, 3 July 2008. It occurred during Committee of the Whole House (HL) and Debate on bill on Education and Skills Bill.


Education and Skills Bill

I think that the Minister recognises the absolute mayhem this area has created. There is so much uncertainty about it. A couple of days ago I tried to be helpful to the Minister by asking him to look at the pro forma that colleges and training centres are supposed to provide. Perhaps all the questions that have been raised in Committee today could be addressed on that form so that we know which local authority and which training college or institution will make the provision, so that the employer has the evidence in his hands and does not face the difficulty of having to prove that he is not satisfied with the fact that the young person has gone to the institution or training centre to receive the training required under the Bill.
