This question was answered on 4th June 2015
The Work Programme allows providers the freedom to use a range of tools to support people into work, including providing financial inclusion support if they believe this would be beneficial. The Department is currently developing the next phase of the Work Programme . Evaluation of the existing programme will inform how the next programme best meets the needs of participants.
