§ Mr. Andrew SmithAll member states have agreed to present Employment Action Plans by 15 April so that an initial assessment can take place at the Cardiff European Council. These plans will set out each member state's proposals for implementing the Employment Guidelines agreed at the Luxembourg Jobs Summit attended by the Prime Minister last November. We intend to produce and publish the UK Employment Action Plan well in advance of the deadline.
