§ 16. Jane GriffithsTo ask the Secretary of State for Education and Employment what the function is of the personal job account in the operation of employment zones. [127935]
§ Ms JowellThe Personal Job Account is a radical and practical way of helping long-term unemployed people into work. Existing funds have been drawn together to make up the Personal Job Account, namely funds for Employment Service Support, training and benefits payments. There is no upper or lower limit to the amount allocated; it is dependent upon the needs of that participant and their most effective route back into work.
