	tabling member printed	Lord Stoddart of Swindon
	uin	HL955
	answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 14/07/2014 answer text <p /> <p>Tackling unemployment is essential for sustainable economic growth in the UK and the EU. Where labour market reforms are needed in Member States, these should be encouraged. Opportunities at the EU level to exchange best practice and identify areas for reform exist, in particular through the European Semester process. However, as is recognised in Article 147 of the Lisbon Treaty, responsibility for employment policies rests with the Member States. The Government continues to be firm and vigilant on this principle. It is also very clear that the UK will not take part in any deeper co-operation that may be developed for countries in the Eurozone.</p> answering member printed Lord Freud question first answered 14/07/2014 16:19:14 answering member 3893 label Biography information for Lord Freud
