|
OPPOSITION DAY (15th allotted day)
|
[Until 10.00 pm]
|
|
| |
YOUNG PEOPLE IN THE RECESSION
|
|
|
|
| |
That this House deeply regrets that young people are amongst the principal victims of the recession; is profoundly concerned
that limits on entry to higher education mean tens of thousands of suitably qualified young people will be left without a
university or college place in autumn 2009; is concerned by reports that graduates face the worst job prospects for decades;
regrets that the number of young people starting an apprenticeship is falling and that the number of young people not in any
kind of education, employment or training has risen to nearly one million; regrets that Ministers did not support proposals
to fund 25,000 new Masters degrees in science, technology, engineering and mathematics subjects in this year’s Budget; and
calls on Ministers to refocus Train to Gain provision to provide 100,000 extra training places and support the thousands of
apprentices who risk losing their training places during this recession.
|
|
|
As an Amendment to Mr David Cameron’s proposed Motion (Young people in the recession):
|
|
|
|
|
|
(a)
|
| |
Line 1, leave out from ‘House’ to end and add ‘recognises this Government’s commitment to not repeating the mistakes of past recessions,
and to ensuring young people are not trapped in long-term unemployment; notes since 1997 there are 300,000 extra students
in higher education and public funding has increased by over 25 per cent. in real terms; praises this Government’s commitment
to helping graduates through the downturn, including an ambition for 5,000 extra internships this autumn; notes investment
in apprenticeships is over £1 billion this year and that in 1997 there were only 65,000 starts compared to 225,000 in 2007-08;
further notes the success of Train to Gain in supporting over 1.2 million course starts; further notes the September Guarantee
offering all 16 to 17 year olds an apprenticeship, school, college or training place; and commends this year’s Budget for
investing £1 billion in the Future Jobs Fund to guarantee a job, training or work experience for every young person unemployed
for 12 months, part of a £5 billion investment in tackling unemployment.’.
|
|
|
|
|
|
| |
That this House believes the Government’s identity cards scheme should be cancelled immediately.
|
|
|
As Amendments to Mr David Cameron’s proposed Motion (Identity cards):
|
|
|
|
|
|
(a)
|
| |
Line 1, leave out from ‘House’ to end and add ‘acknowledges the continued and growing problem of identity fraud in the UK; accepts
that a universally accepted biometric passport or identity card linked to a national identity register will help secure the
identity of an individual and reduce the incidence of multiple identity fraud; further recognises that for certain groups,
including young people, an identity card will enable them to provide proof of age and more broadly enable people to travel
throughout Europe; considers that it is right that non-European Economic Area foreign nationals should be obliged to apply
for an identity card which provides a simple and effective method of determining the right of residence and entitlement to
employment and benefits; welcomes the fact that for those joining the National Identity Service there will be a choice between
identity cards and biometric passports; and notes the fact that any decision on whether membership of the scheme should be
compulsory would require further legislation.’.
|
|
|
|
|
(b)
|
| |
Line 1, after ‘scheme’, insert ‘and any plans for a centralised biometric register.’
