Question to the Department for Work and Pensions:

To ask the Secretary of State for Work and Pensions, what assessment has been made of the costs of relocation and refurbishment at Cavendish Court Jobcentre as part of the current jobcentre closure programme.

We are not in a position to share figures due to commercial confidentiality pending completion of legal processes. We expect to make savings by merging offices through reduced running costs and making best use of both office space available and taxpayer’s money.
