Labour — Newport West and Islwyn

Speaking in the House of Commons on 17 June 2026

Debate

Job Creation

Contribution

I thank the Minister for her responses. I want to raise the issue of young people not in education, employment or training. We know that the Conservatives failed our Welsh young people for 14 years, so I am really pleased that this Labour Government are investing £2.5 billion in the youth guarantee. How many Welsh young people will benefit from this scheme?
