“For every £25 of money that we're spending on income support, we're spending a pound on employment support. Even though 84 per cent of these young people who are Neet say they want to be in work and training.” 1 in 7 young people (16-24) are currently not in education, employment, or training, we need a "rewiring of the state" to prioritise work rather than welfare says the chair of the young people and work review, Alan Milburn. Alan Milburn was speaking to Adam Boulton on Times Radio. Listen live every Sunday, from 10am-1pm.
