Summer Internship Programme

The question

To ask the Minister for the Cabinet Office, with reference to the answer of 5 February 2026, to Question HL13977, on Summer Internship Programme, what is the timetable for the assessment of the changes on the new working class requirement, and whether a public report will be published.

Answered by Cabinet Office

Fast Stream recruitment data is published annually and includes data on internship recruitment. This is the same approach as was taken under the previous administration. We expect to see the broader impact of the changes made last year to be seen in the data that is published in 2027.
