YOUTH JOBS IN SPORT AND LEISURE

Early day motion 2026, tabled 13 October 2009 by Bob Spink (Independent). Signed by 19 members.

That this House notes that the Government plans to create 2,000 jobs in the sport and leisure industry, but is concerned that imposing a 10 month unemployed rule on access to sports jobs would improperly disadvantage youngsters who have studied sports science and management; and calls on the Government to ensure equality of opportunity and not to discriminate against youngsters who have worked hard to gain sport and leisure qualifications.

Signatures by party: Labour 10, DUP 3, Conservative 2, Independent 2, Liberal Democrat 2.
