Part of Oral Answers to Questions — Prime Minister – in the House of Commons at 12:00 am on 13 September 2017.
Cambridge parents tell me that when young people returned to schools and colleges last week, in some cases they found that almost half the cooks and cleaners had gone. reports that pubs in the area will not be able to serve food, because they cannot find the skilled staff to do it.

Will the Prime Minister tell us what plans she has put in place to help institutions deal with this chronic and acute sudden shortage of labour?
