Proceeding contribution from Mark Pritchard (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 23 October 2008. It occurred during Topical debate on Work and Skills.
Work and Skills
The Minister and I are former Harrow councillors, and I remember discussing unemployment in that area with him several years ago. Rising unemployment was a problem then as it is now. Will he look again at an issue that I raised when I served on the Work and Pensions Committee? Before the Government close Jobcentre Plus offices, will they look at the unemployment rate in the area? Does it not make sense that Jobcentre Plus offices should be retained in areas where unemployment is highest?
