1/ We’re launching a new programme to give hundreds of thousands of young people the best possible chance of getting on and getting a job.
I’m making available an initial £2 billion and there will be no cap on the number of places available. #PlanForJobs

1/ Traineeships are a proven scheme to get young people ready for work. We know they work, so for the first time ever we’ll pay employers £1,000 to take on trainees, with triple the number of places. #PlanForJobs

The evidence says careers advice works, so we’ll fund it, with an additional £32m to recruit career advisers and provide bespoke advice and careers guidance for over a quarter of a million more people. #PlanForJobs

Sector-Based Work Academies provide training, work placements, and a guaranteed job interview in high-demand sectors.
The evidence shows they work, so we’ll expand them – tripling the number of places. #PlanForJobs

We’re also introducing a brand-new bonus to hire apprentices aged 25 and over, with a payment of £1,500. #PlanForJobs

We are doubling the number of work coaches at a cost of nearly £900m this year.

1/ We’re funding £2bn of Green Home Grants helping to unlock work for thousands of plumbers, builders and tradespeople.

1/ I have decided today to cut stamp duty.
Right now, there is no stamp duty on transactions below £125,000 (or £300,000 for first-time buyers). I am increasing the threshold to £500,000. #PlanForJobs

We're reducing VAT to 5% for goods and services supplied by the tourism and hospitality sectors.
This is a £4bn catalyst benefiting over 150,000 businesses, and consumers everywhere - all helping to protect 2.4 million jobs. #PlanForJobs

To support restaurants and the people who work in them we’re saying ‘Eat Out to Help Out’.
So for the month of August we will give you a 50% reduction, up to £10 per head, on sit-down meals and non-alcoholic drinks Monday-Wednesday. #PlanForJobs

Making the most of @Pret's price cut in response to the VAT reduction that takes effect today for the tourism and hospitality sectors.
