Question to the Department for Work and Pensions:

To ask the Secretary of State for Work and Pensions, what estimate his Department has made of how many full-time equivalent staff will be employed by his Department at Shettleston Jobcentre in Glasgow after the closure of Parkhead, Easterhouse and Bridgeton Jobcentres in February 2018.

We are unable to confirm the number of full-time equivalent staff who will be employed at Shettleston Jobcentre in February 2018, as the final allocation may change based on claimant demand.

We can confirm that all of the staff who are currently working in Easterhouse, Bridgeton and Parkhead Jobcentres will relocate to Shettleston.
