Finance (No. 2) Bill

Proceeding contribution from Baroness Keeley (Labour) in the House of Commons on Monday, 15 April 2013. It occurred during Debate on bills on Finance (No. 2) Bill.

I will happily respond. We would actually bring some growth to the economy and get some of our young people back to work. We would use a levy on bankers, not in the way that the Government propose in the Bill, but to build houses and to get young people back to work. We would guarantee work for young people who have been unemployed for 12 months or more. Going back a few years—I do not think the hon. Gentleman had been elected at that point—we had the future jobs fund in my constituency and in Salford. That gave hundreds of jobs for young people. Then there was a future and they had hope; now they have nothing.
