27. Mr. Streeter

To ask the Secretary of State for Social Security whether he plans to include a back to work bonus in his reforms of the unemployment benefits.

Yes, we plan to introduce a back to work bonus so that unemployed claimants who undertake part-time work while they are on benefit can receive a lump sum payment of up to £1,000 when they leave benefit to start work.
