Oral Answers to Questions

Debate between Joe Powell and Stephen Timms

Monday 27th October 2025 Commons Chamber

[Sir Stephen Timms]

I would be very happy to look into the particular case the hon. Member raises. Of course, an appeal process is available, so I hope that her constituent has submitted an appeal. If she lets me have the details, I will gladly have a look at the case.

[Joe Powell (Kensington and Bayswater) (Lab)]

T7. Earlier this month I visited the Spear programme in north Kensington, which is doing fantastic work in supporting young people back into employment through programmes that the DWP data lab has found to have a significant impact. Could the Secretary of State outline how evidence produced by units such as the data lab will help guide the trailblazer funding to get young people back into work?
