Question to the Department for Work and Pensions:
To ask the Secretary of State for Work and Pensions, whether the National Audit Office will conduct a review of the performance of the Restart Scheme.
The National Audit Office is independent of government and carries out reviews at the discretion of the Comptroller and Auditor General. They have started a review of the Restart Scheme which they have told us they intend to publish in the autumn. Details of this are available on the National Audit Office website.
