Question to the Department for Work and Pensions:

To ask Her Majesty's Government whether they contract any company (1) to run part of, or (2) to approve applications for, the Kickstart Scheme; if so, what are the names of those companies; what are their roles and responsibilities; and how much are the contracts worth.

No companies are contracted to run part of, or approve applications for, the Departments’ Kickstart Scheme.
