Charities and businesses will be given cash incentives to get jobless under-18s ‘earning or learning’, Nick Clegg announced today.
The Deputy Prime Minister hopes to defuse the ‘ticking time bomb’ of youth unemployment with a £126million scheme across England
Organisations will receive up to £2,200 for every young person they help.
They will receive an initial payment up front, and more money when the youngsters show progress.
