Proceeding contribution from Peter Kilfoyle (Labour) in the House of Commons on Monday, 29 June 2009. It occurred during Ministerial statement on Building Britain's Future.


Building Britain's Future

I represent a constituency in which high unemployment and low skills have gone hand in hand for generations, something that particularly affects the under-25s. In the 1970s, we had job creation projects, in the 1980s we had youth opportunity programmes and in the 1990s we had the new deal. What I would like to hear is what is qualitatively different about what the Prime Minister proposes today that will have the desired effect, especially on those young people without work.
