Question to the HM Treasury:
To ask Mr Chancellor of the Exchequer, what assessment he has made of recent trends in the level of employment.
This question was answered on 16th June 2015
Employment is at its highest ever level - with 31.1 million people in work. Since the 2010 election employment has increased by more than 2 million – meaning that on average 1,000 extra people have become employed every day. The UK now has the 3rd highest employment rate in the G7 a step closer to achieving our full-employment ambition to have the highest employment rate in the G7.
