  • LDA Project Funding (Supplementary) [1]

    • Question by: Richard Barnes

  • LDA Project Funding (Supplementary) [2]

    • Question by: Richard Barnes
    • Meeting date: 11 October 2006
    OK, can I ask the question another way then? Would you give a grant to a company which is effectively not trading because it has got no business of any size? Would you give it to such an organisation which could hardly be called a company?

    As you are aware, I have been looking at the grant procedures of the LDA for some months and I have certainly identified about 20 companies that are dormant that you have given money to. I will not read out the list now, but I can certainly supply that to you.

    Would you expect directors of dormant companies which had a relationship with this building to so declare it?
  • Barriers to Employment (Supplementary) [19]

    • Question by: Angie Bray
    • Meeting date: 11 October 2006
    Or workless. They are not workless, because they are not able to work. They are doing other things. Elizabeth Howlett AM: You have hit on a bête noire of mine, I must say, because I think we have marginalised and done very badly by a whole group of youngsters leaving schools who have manual skills and do not get training. There is nothing disrespectful about saying you are a manual worker. It is an essential element in our life and, in fact, Poles are keeping the construction industry going. You talked about people coming from the Asian continent with great...

    • Question by: Angie Bray
    • Meeting date: 11 October 2006
    : Indeed, but I think someone should ask well what would be the point in trying to get into work people who are long-term sick and disabled, who have obviously taken themselves out of work because they cannot work?
