Unemployment

Proceeding contribution from Jim Shannon (Democratic Unionist Party) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 14 December 2011. It occurred during Opposition day on Unemployment.
It has been suggested that businesses should be given an incentive to employ people aged between 16 and 24, in the form of a £1,500 tax relief which would cover national insurance contributions for a year. Does the hon. Gentleman believe that such initiatives are capable of providing employment for unemployed people?
