Written question asked by Ian Mearns (Labour) on Tuesday, 2 November 2010, in the House of Commons. It was due for an answer on Thursday, 4 November 2010. It was answered by Maria Miller (Conservative) on Friday, 19 November 2010 on behalf of the Department for Work and Pensions.


Access to Work Programme

Question
To ask the Secretary of State for Work and Pensions what internal guidance his Department is using on the operation from 1 October 2010 of the Access to Work scheme.
Answer

Jobcentre Plus provides guidance to staff on the operation of the Access to Work programme and this is updated regularly. Access to Work funds employment support that is over and above that which a business is legally obliged to put in place under 'reasonable adjustments'. Jobcentre Plus are happy to issue a copy of the full Access to Work guidance to anyone who requests it. I have made arrangements to place the latest version of the guidance in the House of Commons Library.
