Proposal To Close Coventry's The Job Shop And Local Government Funding
EDM number 895 in 2016-17, proposed by Jim Cunningham on 30/01/2017.
Categorised under the topic of Unemployment.
That this House is concerned by the proposal to close Coventry's the Job Shop; notes the importance of the Job Shop in Coventry; further notes that it has helped 25,000 people over the last three years; notes that this situation has been complicated by the planned relocation of Coventry Tile Hill jobcentre and the funding for Coventry City Council being cut by a massive 45 per cent since 2010, which equates to a £315 cut per person in Coventry; and calls on the Government to protect local government funding so that this and similar services can remain open.
This motion has been signed by a total of 16 MPs.
