Proceeding contribution from Lord Grayling (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 14 December 2011. It occurred during Opposition day on Unemployment.


Unemployment

The hon. Gentleman will know that in order for a private sector organisation to participate in the future jobs fund, it had to set up a special purpose vehicle to work around European Union state aid rules. The result was that virtually all placements under the future jobs fund were in the public and community sector. In putting in place additional programmes, providing apprenticeships and providing a subsidy through the youth contract, we are focusing support on roles in the private sector.
