115. Mr. Mans

To ask the Secretary of State for Employment how many long-term unemployed have been offered help to date under the restart programme.

Mr. Lee

Since 1 July 1986, some 3.2 million interviews have taken place under the restart programme, of which just under 90 per cent. have resulted in an offer of positive help being made.
