Labour — Leyton and Wanstead

Speaking in the House of Commons on 10 February 2026

Debate

Place-based Employment Support Programmes

Contribution

I am reminded of the JobsPlus scheme that is being run on one of our council estates in Leyton, where L&Q has been going out and actively knocking on doors. We have seen not only the young people who were the target of the scheme coming back into the work environment, but their parents. Does my hon. Friend agree that that type of scheme needs to continue to be funded, and to be extended, so that other people can be brought back into the working environment?
