Proceeding contribution from Lord Freud (Conservative) in the House of Lords on Monday, 27 February 2012. It occurred during Debates on delegated legislation on Social Security Benefits Up-rating Order 2012.


Social Security Benefits Up-rating Order 2012

I thank the noble Lord for reminding me. Because the Work Programme is a payment-by-results system, you see the results later than with those programmes paid for on a pro forma basis. I am not sure of the exact date but I think that we are looking to publish the entrants to the programme in the next couple of months. We expect to start publishing the performance figures of the Work Programme providers in the autumn. These figures are being done to the sophisticated standards required in order to become national statistics. Perhaps I may correct myself as regards referrals. They are expected rather sooner than in two months' time. The first set of figures is expected this month.
