Question to the Department for Work and Pensions:

To ask the Secretary of State for Work and Pensions, how many users of Access to Work who receive funding for British Sign Language interpreters have had their awards expire before their renewal is processed.

We do not hold this information in a way that can be extracted. Identifying such cases would require a manual review of individual awards, which would incur disproportionate cost.
