Question to the Department for Work and Pensions:

To ask the Secretary of State for Work and Pensions, how much his Department spent on providing the Disability Confident scheme in each of the last five financial years.

The Disability Confident scheme is delivered by a small policy team within the department, and by colleagues across the Jobcentre Plus network, who engage with employers and partner organisations as part of their day-to-day business. Total scheme expenditure is not separately recorded within departmental budgets.
