Labour — Stirling and Strathallan

Speaking in the House of Commons on 7 September 2026

Debate

Economic Growth

Contribution

Like many parents all over the country, this month, my wife and I will drop off our child at university for the first time—in this instance, to begin an engineering degree. What assessment has the Minister made of the economic benefits of helping more young people into secure work? What assurance can she give all our young people starting in education or training this month that the Labour Government are alive to their fears about rising costs, technological changes and global uncertainty, and are working hard to ensure that economic conditions mean that they have a job when it is time for them to enter the jobs market?
