Speaking in the House of Lords on 6 January 2026

Debate

Graduate Jobs

Contribution

My Lords, while the employment rate remains higher for graduates than for non-graduates, we recognise that there are challenges faced by young people leaving university. We are delivering for graduates by investing £1 billion in sector skills packages to create hundreds of thousands of jobs, by launching the jobs and careers service so that everyone can access quality careers advice and by delivering the youth guarantee so that 16 to 24 year-olds, including graduates, have the best support to enter work.
