Proceeding contribution from Roberta Blackman-Woods (Labour) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 17 June 2010. It occurred during Debate on Building a High-Skilled Economy.


Building a High-Skilled Economy

I am sure we are all enjoying the hon. Gentleman's theatrics this afternoon, but will he look at some evidence? In 2008-09, 240,000 people started apprenticeships, compared to 75,000 in 1997-98, so I do not think it is for Labour to take lectures from the Conservatives about the importance of apprenticeships.
