Question to the Department for Work and Pensions:

To ask the Secretary of State for Work and Pensions, whether self-employed musicians can submit music for use on her Department's helplines.

DWP has a procurement framework with a list of suppliers whom we can purchase from. The Department must ensure that any music used is licence-free and adheres to accessibility standards. There are also set parameters regarding audio frequencies to ensure a quality experience for callers, particularly when using a mobile telephone.
