Question to the Department for Work and Pensions:
To ask the Secretary of State for Work and Pensions, how many disabled people have benefitted from the Government's extension of the Access to Work scheme to cover work experience placements in the last two years; and how the £2 million allocated to that initiative has been spent.
This question was answered on 17th December 2015
We do not hold official statistics to the standard of the National Statistical Authority and so are unable to provide this information.
Access to Work supported 36,760 disabled people to take up or remain in employment during 2014/15 (up from 35,560 in 2013/14).
