Compulsory Jobs Guarantee

Proceeding contribution from Sheila Gilmore (Labour) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 11 February 2015. It occurred during Opposition day on Compulsory Jobs Guarantee.

The Secretary of State always says of the work experience programme that about half of young people who take part in it go into work. His own Department’s evaluation—I do not know whether there has been a more recent one than 2012, but I have not seen it—suggested that following the work experience programme there was a difference between a participant group and a non-participant group, but it was only a small one. Does he not agree that nearly half of those who did not participate in work experience also went into work?
