Access to Work Programme: Standards
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Work and Pensions, what the average waiting time was between approval of an Access to Work application and commencement of support in each of the past two years, broken down by region.
Answered by Sir Stephen Timms
Information on the average time between approval of an Access to Work application and the commencement of support is not held.
Providing this information would require a manual review of individual case records, which would incur a disproportionate cost.
