Abstract

<p>The ‘Intermediate Labour Market’ (ILM) programme has advantages both in rate of employment and retention. Information on the ILM’s position and implemenation in the New Deal is scarce. The House of Commons Select Committee in the UK provides useful primary source information on the ILM’s position in the New Deal and its changing processes. At the beginning of the New Deal, the ILM was potentially built into New Deal programmes. However, gradually as the New Deal progressed, the UK government made fewer evaluations on the ILM’s demand-side. In 1999, the government began to display a degree of ambivalence toward the ILM programme. In time, ILM implementation faded away with economic recovery. However, after Lehman’s fall, the need for the ILM was discussed again and policies for creating jobs such as ‘The Future Jobs Fund’ programme were implemented from 2009 to 2010. The ILM programme provides a good practical model for intermediate level jobs in Japan.</p>
