Proceeding contribution from Stuart Andrew (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 20 October 2011. It occurred during Ministerial statement on Statement.


Work Programme

Andrew. Diolch yn fawr, Mr Cadeirydd. Unemployment is a problem that has faced successive Governments. To hear some of the Opposition Members speak, one might be forgiven for not realising that it went up by 270,000 since the Labour Government came to power. I welcome the Work programme. Does the Minister agree that the voluntary sector has a wealth of knowledge, a great deal of expertise and a successful track record of getting young people back into work, and that that is the valuable part of the programme?
