Oral Answers to Questions

Debate between Guy Opperman and Gary Sambrook

Monday 5th December 2022 Commons Chamber

[Guy Opperman]

There is far too much for me to outline at the Dispatch Box, but I will write to my hon. Friend. I will also visit him in Orpington to set out in more detail the various things we are doing to tackle the vacancy list on many levels. He will be aware that the labour market has recovered strongly since 2020, with payroll employment up on pre-pandemic levels, but we accept there is more to do.

[Gary Sambrook (Birmingham, Northfield) (Con)]

T1. If he will make a statement on his departmental responsibilities.
