Proceeding contribution from Lord Elton (Conservative) in the House of Lords on Tuesday, 16 June 2009. It occurred during Committee of the Whole House (HL) and Debate on bill on Apprenticeships, Skills, Children and Learning Bill.

Apprenticeships, Skills, Children and Learning Bill

The other thing that puzzled me about the noble Lord’s remarks is that he spent a great deal of time agreeing with my noble friend that an apprenticeship would naturally include a great deal of on-the-job instruction and supervision. His answer to the question of the noble Baroness, Lady Sharp, about what happens if the jobs are not available as described seemed to be a case of "it will be all right on the night". Can he give us any specific assurance as to what will happen if there are more candidates than places?
