Youth Guarantee
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Work and Pensions, will claimants who reject a placement under the Youth Guarantee scheme retain access to benefits.
Answered by Andrew Western
The Youth Guarantee is part of a new social contract with young people opportunity matched by responsibility. Young people who can work will be expected to engage with the support offered. If the support is declined without good reasons, existing benefit sanction rules will apply.
