Wednesday 8th September 2021

Asked by: Jonathan Reynolds (Labour (Co-op) - Stalybridge and Hyde)

Question to the Department for Work and Pensions:

To ask the Secretary of State for Work and Pensions, how many people have successfully moved into work in food distribution after participation in the Restart scheme.

Answered by Mims Davies - Minister of State (Department for Work and Pensions)

The information requested is not available. No information is collected on the numbers of people moving into work in food distribution.

The Restart Scheme is aimed at supporting people who have been on Universal Credit in the Intensive Work Search Regime for 12-18 months into sustained employment. Referrals to Restart began in July 2021 and participants can spend up to 12 months on the scheme.
