Proceeding contribution from Mike Weir (Scottish National Party) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 11 November 2009. It occurred during Ministerial statement on Skills for Growth.


Skills for Growth

Much of this area is, of course, devolved. I welcome the fact that the Minister is emulating aspects of the system adopted in Scotland two years ago, but on the UK matter, can he tell us how industry-wide sectors, such as the excellent one for training in the oil and gas industry, will come into the strategy? In particular, will he help them to move on into the low carbon industry, where many of the skills are equally applicable?
