Labour (Co-op) — Stoke-on-Trent Central

Speaking in the House of Commons on 25 February 2025

Debate

Institute for Apprenticeships and Technical Education (Transfer of Functions etc) Bill [Lords]

Contribution

I thank the Secretary of State for being so generous with her time. I absolutely support her ambition of ensuring that we have the skills for the jobs of the future. Will she say a little about how Skills England will support foundational manufacturing industries, such as ceramics in Stoke-on-Trent, which will not be prioritised in the industrial strategy but still have a lot to offer our economy and are crying out for skills from local people? If we can get that right, we can grow our own economy, and that is true levelling up in my opinion.
