'Priority for criminals' over jobs
Jobcentres will be told to prioritise finding work for criminals under new Government plans.
Jobcentre workers will be awarded maximum points on a 12-point scale if they place an ex-offender in work, including ex-convicts.
Minister for Skills Phil Hope denied that the proposal would mean discriminating against other jobless people.
