Proceeding contribution from Lord Bellingham (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 11 November 2009. It occurred during Ministerial statement on Skills for Growth.


Skills for Growth

The Minister spoke about the knowledge economy and the need to shape the courses to local businesses. However, is he aware that this will have a pretty hollow ring in west Norfolk, where the college of West Anglia has had its Learning and Skills Council capital programme cancelled, thus depriving it of the promised move to a new state of the art campus? Does he accept that businesses in west Norfolk and the knowledge economy in particular have been let down by his Department?
