There are plans for over 21's, but I guess its 'easier' to work on people not already set in the benefits mindset therefore the under 21's plan is much tougher. Their aim must be to slowly weeding out the mindset as time goes on and the younger generation get older.
Their proposals for over 21's came out last January and included putting people on 12 month work programmes if they were jobless for 2 years. Which would include training but also valuble community work.
