This question was answered on 21st December 2018
The Secretary of State will be making a number of visits across the UK over the next six months. The member will be updated via the usual means should such a visit be planned. The Jobcentre Plus staff in Sunderland and the North East work extremely hard to help people get into employment and this has helped contribute to an additional 71,000 people in employment since 2010.
