LANGUAGE TRAINING FOR JOBSEEKERS

Early day motion 393, tabled 26 November 2007 by Hywel Williams (Plaid Cymru). Signed by 15 members.

That this House supports the Government's intention to make English language training available for jobseekers; notes that in Wales an ability in both English and Welsh is increasingly an essential occupational qualification; and believes therefore that in Wales training in Welsh should be available to jobseekers on the same basis as training in English and that extra consequential funding should be made available to achieve this end.
