THE chairman of the Economic Affairs Scrutiny panel, Deputy Geoff Southern, has placed an advertisement in the JEP asking for Islanders to get in touch about difficulties they have had finding a job.
The advertisement poses three questions which respondents are invited to answer.
They are: Are enough apprenticeships offered to local people? Are too many jobs available to non-local workers? Are there enough job places for school leavers? The advertisement adds: ‘This is your opportunity to tell government what you think.’
The panel says that it wants to hear from apprentices, employers and anyone with an opinion on the subject to piece together an accurate and rounded picture of the job market.
