Proceeding contribution from James Purnell (Labour) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 25 November 2008. It occurred during Ministerial statement on Employment.
Employment
I absolutely can give my right hon. Friend that guarantee. That is exactly what the rapid response service does. The hon. Member for Epsom and Ewell was wrong to say that people cannot train when they are on jobseeker's allowance. He should read the Green Paper, which makes it clear that we have abolished the 16-hour rule where people are training to get themselves back into work.
