Question to the Department for Work and Pensions:
To ask the Secretary of State for Work and Pensions, how many work placements her Department plans to create under the Kickstart scheme in the next (a) three, (b) six and (c) 12 months.
There will be no cap on the number of jobs that can be created by the Department of Work and Pensions’ Kickstart Scheme and we are actively encouraging further applications from employers. The department plans to create as many new jobs for young people as possible.
