Mr. Kirkwood: To ask the Secretary of State for Work and Pensions how many intermediate labour market programmes have received
funding over the last five years; and how much they have received. [85702]
Mr. Nicholas Brown: We have this year launched 20 StepUP pilots offering guaranteed jobs for up to 5,000 long-term unemployed
people. We are investing £40 million in the first two years of the pilot programme. The StepUP pilots are testing the use of
intermediate labour markets for those who have not found work through the New Deal. The evaluation of StepUP will provide reliable
evidence about the cost effectiveness of this type of intervention, and will inform decisions on the wider use of transitional
employment schemes in our welfare to work strategy.
Separately, some New Deal providers match New Deal monies with their own funds to create intermediate labour market opportunities
for individual participants. Information on the number of such arrangements and the expenditure incurred is not held centrally and
could be obtained only at disproportionate cost.

Mr. Nicholas Brown: [holding answer 28 January 2002]: StepUp, which will be launched in April, builds on the llNew Deals by
providing transitional jobs to act as a stepping stone for long-term unemployed people moving from benefits into work.
Officials are currently working on the detail of the pilots in readiness for the April launch. The first six StepUp pilots will
start in April in parts of Cardiff, East Ayrshire, Lambeth, Oldham, Sheffield and Sunderland. A further 14 pilots, including one in
Coventry, South, will start throughout the rest of the year. We will thoroughly evaluate the pilots before any decision is taken
about a national roll-out of StepUp.
