To ask the Secretary of State for Work and Pensions, how many people (a) were eligible for and (b) participated in the Work Programme in Cumbernauld, Kilsyth and Kirkintilloch East constituency in each month since October 2012.
In response to the first question, those eligible for the Work Programme are referred to it and therefore eligibility is reflected by referral numbers.
Information on those referred to the Work Programme, by parliamentary constituency, is published and can be found at:

Gregg McClymont (Cumbernauld, Kilsyth and Kirkintilloch East) (Lab):
A moment ago, the Leader of the Opposition asked whether long-term unemployment had risen by 96% since the introduction of the Work programme, but he did not receive an answer. I ask the Prime Minister again: has long-term unemployment risen by 96% since the Work programme was introduced?

I have given the figures for the Work programme: 800,000 people taking part and 200,000 people getting work. That is against a background where, over the last quarter, unemployment and the rate of youth unemployment have been falling and there have been more people in work. That is a record we can build on.
