Debated in Parliament on 26 Feb 2026.
Mr Gerald Giam Yean Song asked the Minister for Manpower (a) whether the placement of 350 fresh graduates under the Graduate Industry Traineeships (GRIT) scheme as of February 2026 is in line with the Government's original projections; (b) when all 800 available places are expected to be filled; and (c) what percentage of these 350 placements are with small and medium enterprises.
