Question to the Department for Work and Pensions:

To ask the Secretary of State for Work and Pensions, whether his Department has met (a) Citizens Advice Scotland and (b) Money Matters to discuss the current review of his Department's estate.

Over the past few months, we have been negotiating new leases with our landlords and partners. This has been a very complex commercial process and has limited our ability for detailed discussions with local customer representative groups on specific site proposals.

We have committed to a public consultation for offices over three miles and 20 minutes away by public transport and would encourage customer representative groups to submit their views on these proposals via the online consultation.
