Lucy Powell
I apologise, Madam Deputy Speaker. I want to put it on the record that it was I who was speaking from a sedentary position. The Minister is indeed at the vanguard, but the only other discernible member of the Government is the Minister for the Armed Forces, who is standing behind the Speaker’s Chair.
The Minister for Apprenticeships and Skills (Robert Halfon)
May I make a quick point? As the debate has highlighted today, it is quality, not quantity, that counts.
