Productivity

Proceeding contribution from Peter Kyle (Labour) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 17 June 2015. It occurred during Opposition day on Productivity.

Does the Chief Secretary recognise that in constituencies such as mine 90% of all businesses employ fewer than eight people? The skills and productivity challenge we have is on the softer, entrepreneurial side. He mentions the skills challenge and the setting up of academies. Does he acknowledge that we need to invest more in the soft, communication and entrepreneurial skills that young people need in an economy such as mine?
