The question

To ask the Secretary of State for Work and Pensions, whether she plans to publish data collected from the fit note trailblazers.

Answered by Alison McGovern

In 2024, the previous government announced fit note trailblazers to be included in some of the 15 WorkWell pilot areas across Integrated Care Boards in England.

Due to the timings of the General Election the trailblazers were not launched.

The learning from the Fit Note Trailblazers will be applied to three of the eight inactivity trailblazers that are NHSE led health and growth accelerators, where £45 million has been specifically allocated to three integrated care boards to improve population health outcomes and reduce health-related economic inactivity as part of the Get Britain Working Plans.
