Language Training For Jobseekers

EDM number 393 in 2007-08, proposed by Hywel Williams on 26/11/2007.
Categorised under the topics of Employment, Employment schemes, Training and Unemployment.

That this House supports the Government's intention to make English language training available for jobseekers; notes that in Wales an ability in both English and Welsh is increasingly an essential occupational qualification; and believes therefore that in Wales training in Welsh should be available to jobseekers on the same basis as training in English and that extra consequential funding should be made available to achieve this end.

This motion has been signed by a total of 15 MPs.
