Mr Halfon said: “I am delighted to say that Employment Minister Chris Grayling gave his full backing to the scheme. This is fantastic news."

Mr Halfon sought the backing of Mr Grayling in his request that work experience needs to progress to apprenticeships.

He also sought Mr Grayling’s support of his Apprentice School scheme, which aims to employ genuine apprentices in Parliament, and which is also involving Harlow College and Essex County Council.

Mr Grayling praises the efforts being made by Mr Halfon.

Mr Grayling said: “I am very happy to both support and pay tribute to the efforts of Robert Halfon.

“He is a model example of how an individual member of Parliament can make a real difference, by identifying an issue where they can transform people's prospects.

“His work on apprenticeships is a credit to him, and a credit to this House.”
