Apprenticeships and Skills (Public Procurement Contracts) Bill

Debate between Diana Johnson and Nicholas Dakin

Friday 1st November 2013 Commons Chamber

[Nic Dakin]

My hon. Friend is making a good point. Does she agree that there is greater value for money if funds from the public purse benefit local businesses and young people in the way that she is describing?

[Diana Johnson]

Absolutely. My hon. Friend has been a champion of ensuring that youngsters have those opportunities and that businesses provide the apprenticeships that they should provide.
