Proceeding contribution from Rob Marris (Labour) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 10 March 2009. It occurred during Opposition day on Unemployment.


Unemployment

In the motion to which she is a signatory, the right hon. Lady has put forward some interesting ideas that are worth debating; I am thinking of the loan guarantee scheme, relaxing the rules on jobseeker's allowance for training and cutting taxes for new employees. I see those as pump-priming measures. Will she say what her party would spend up front on those three measures in the financial year 2009-10?
