Welsh Liberal Democrat AM Eluned Parrott has today welcomed the drop in unemployment of 6000 people across Wales.
Eluned Parrott, Welsh Liberal Democrat shadow Economy Minister said:
“This is yet more good news for Wales and the UK. It is showing that the UK Government is on the right track in repairing Britain’s economy and equipping it for the future. Because of the work of the Liberal Democrats in Government, our economy is one of the fastest-growing in the developed world. However, we recognise that there is still a long way to go.
“Hopefully the stronger economy will help young people find sustainable and meaningful employment, especially those graduating this month.
“Last week we learnt that the Welsh Auditor General has serious concerns about the Welsh Labour Government’s approach to helping 19-24 year olds gain employment. The Welsh Government needs to be ambitious in tackling the problem of youth unemployment once and for all.”
