Dormant cash boost for jobs drive

Around £90 million from dormant bank accounts will be used to tackle high rates of unemployment among young people from ethnic minorities, Theresa May has announced.

Youth joblessness blights communities and too much talent and potential is being wasted, the Prime Minister said. It comes after she warned public services they must “explain or change” significant differences in the way people of different ethnicities are treated after publishing the findings of a racial disparity audit in October.
