Question to the Department for Work and Pensions:

To ask the Secretary of State for Work and Pensions, how much financial support her Department has provided to job seekers with dyspraxia in each year of the last ten years.

There is no data held or collected that could highlight specific financial support provided to job seekers with dyspraxia.

The Government is wholly committed to support those on low income and will continue to do so through such measures as increasing the living wage, and by spending over £110 billion on welfare support for people of working age in 2021/22. With a record £59bn being spent on benefits to support disabled people and people with health conditions.

A range of DWP initiatives are supporting disabled people to prepare for, to start, stay and succeed in work. These include the Work and Health Programme, the Intensive Personalised Employment Support programme, Access to Work, Disability Confident and support in partnership with the health system, including Employment Advice in NHS Improving Access to Psychological Therapy services.
