Department for Work and Pensions written question – answered at on 16 July 2015.
To ask the Secretary of State for Work and Pensions, what steps he is taking to help people with learning difficulties find work.
People with Learning Difficulties can benefit from the same support to find work as other disabled people through provision such as the Work Programme and Work Choice.
In addition we are launching a new programme, Specialist Employability Support (SES), in September. It focuses on helping those for whom other provision such as Work Choice or Work Programme is not suitable.
SES replaces the Residential Training contracts and is expected to double the number of people supported at the same cost.
