Question to the Department for Work and Pensions:

To ask the Secretary of State for Work and Pensions, when she plans to update the number of Youth Obligation Support Programme (a) starters and (b) participants.

As the Youth Obligation Support Programme, is being rolled out across the country as part of the broader Universal Credit roll-out, we are using a test and learn process to deliver our services. We are currently reviewing how we best collect and assimilate data on the Youth Obligation Support Programme, to assure ourselves of its delivery.
