Question to the Department for Work and Pensions:
To ask the Secretary of State for Work and Pensions, whether any compulsory redundancies will result from closure of the Alexandria Jobcentre in West Dunbartonshire constituency.
The Department for Work and Pensions is now consulting with colleagues in Alexandria Jobcentre. We are seeking to relocate, or offer alternative roles, to all employees affected by the proposed closure.
It is important to stress that this is a proposed closure: we will make a final decision informed by the consultation process with our colleagues. We are not therefore in a position to comment on the potential for redundancy.
