Debate between Guy Opperman and Mark Eastwood

Wednesday 22nd September 2021 Commons Chamber

[Guy Opperman]

The Government are already acting on this precise point, and in the hon. Lady’s Hackney constituency the jobcentre is working with the council and with local charities as part of the improving outcomes for young black men programme. The focus of that programme is on harnessing successful young black men’s potential and tackling specific inequalities where they exist.

[Mark Eastwood (Dewsbury) (Con)]
