Summary
[edit]DescriptionLibrary extension and the Future Jobs Fund.jpg |
English: 11 December 2010. Not a planned new building but a strip of land outside Marcus Garvey Library near Tottenham Green.
¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯ In 2009 my colleague Cllr Bernice Vanier and I had an idea about turning it into a garden for the adjacent children's library. Haringey Library staff had a similar idea and work began to clear the ground. Although this uncovered a problem - large chunks of rubble buried when the library was first built. In December 2010 work developing the Children's Garden was being done by a team employed for six months under the Future Jobs Fund (FJF). This was a national Government programme which funded job opportunities for unemployed young people. Haringey's Culture, Libraries and Learning Department had teams of FJF staff cataloguing books; undertaking arts projects; archiving records; working at Bruce Castle Museum - and improving a library garden! One aim of the FJF programme was to give participants relevant work experience - and improve their chances of getting a job. Haringey had some great FJF staff - and several found permanent jobs. ¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯ Links § The Liberal/Tory Demolition Government elected in May 2010 scrapped the Future Jobs Fund programme. Prime Minister David Cameron said the scheme was "expensive, badly targeted and did not work". Parliamentary Questions. Hansard 19 January 2011 Column 832. § A 2012 report by the Department for Work and Pensions found the scheme produced a net benefit though tax receipts and a reduced benefits bill. (News report by Rajeev Syal in The Guardian 23 November 2012.) § "The bottom line is that the impact of the Future Jobs Fund (FJF) on the chances of participants being employed and/or off benefit was substantial, significant and positive. 2 years after starting the progamme (so long after the programme itself had ended, so the participants were back in the open labour market), participants were 11 percentage points more likely to be in unsubsidised employment". — Jonathan Portes, National Institute of Economic and Social Research. — www.niesr.ac.uk/blog/future-jobs-fund-what-waste § Guardian article: "The future jobs fund pulled me out of unemployment". § Frank Field a former Labour MP was David Cameron's "poverty tsar". He described the Future Jobs Fund as one of most 'precious' projects of the previous Labour government. § Links checked/ amended 27 January 2020 |
