Commenting on the latest labour market statistics for Wales, Welsh Conservative Shadow Economy Minister, Samuel Kurtz MS said:
“It is incredibly disappointing to see Welsh economic inactivity remain stubbornly high, with unemployment now rising.
“The third First Minister this year has her work cut out with these figures, and an ever-expanding in-tray following 25 years of Labour’s failures in Wales.
“Welsh Conservatives are clear; the focus must be on upskilling our workforce of today, educating our workforce of tomorrow, and actively bringing to Wales the good quality, well paid jobs people deserve. Labour’s priorities are the wrong priorities, and they’ve lost touch with the people of Wales.”
