Question

To ask the Secretary of State for Work and Pensions, with reference to his Department's joint White Paper entitled Get Britain Working, updated on 2 September 2025, when he plans to publish the evaluation of the trailblazers; and if he will set out the initial findings of the evaluation at this stage.

Answer

We expect to publish the first phase of the evaluation of the Get Britain Working Trailblazer programme in due course, which involved developing Theory of Change models and system maps to describe how Trailblazer areas intend to address the aims of the programme.

The Department commissioned a full evaluation of the Get Britain Working Trailblazer programme in January 2026. This will use a range of quantitative and qualitative methods to assess the effectiveness of the programme and is expected to be published in due course.
