Asked by: Gavin Williamson (Conservative - Stone, Great Wyrley and Penkridge)

Question to the Department for Work and Pensions:

To ask the Secretary of State for Work and Pensions, whether he plans to reduce the number of job centres.

Answered by Andrew Western - Parliamentary Under-Secretary (Department for Work and Pensions)

The Department continually reviews its estate to ensure it meets the needs of customers and represents value for money, making changes where appropriate. The Department’s Workplace Transformation Programme is working closely with the Jobs and Careers Service to ensure that our physical spaces evolve to support more personalised, modern employment and skills services for customers. This includes exploring new approaches to workspace location, design and partnership working that enhance accessibility, collaboration, and customer outcomes. Any future decisions regarding the Jobcentre estate would be communicated to Parliament in the usual way.

Written Question
Unemployment: Young People
Tuesday 17th March 2026

Asked by: Gavin Williamson (Conservative - Stone, Great Wyrley and Penkridge)

Question to the Department for Work and Pensions:

To ask the Secretary of State for Work and Pensions, what assessments she has made of the effectiveness of job centre staff in helping NEETs into work or training.

Answered by Diana Johnson - Minister of State (Department for Work and Pensions)

This government will not leave an entire generation of young people behind. The government has announced a further £1 billion investment in young people, resulting in a total £2.5 billion over the next three years into the Youth Guarantee and additional investment to the Growth and Skills Levy. This investment will support almost one million young people and create up to 500,000 opportunities to earn and learn.

This includes the delivery of eight Youth Guarantee Trailblazers in England, expansion of Youth Hubs to more than 360 areas across Great Britain and introduction of a new Youth Guarantee Gateway in Jobcentres, providing more intensive support to 16–24-year-olds.

This investment will also create around 300,000 more opportunities to gain workplace experience and training. It will also help unlock up to 200,000 more employment opportunities, through £3,000 Youth Jobs Grants, a new £2,000 apprenticeship incentive for SMEs and the Jobs Guarantee scheme, providing long-term unemployed 18–24-year-olds with a fully funded six-month job.
