When one gets a jobseeker's allowance, the whole point of it is that it is conditional on one seeking work and taking a job if one can. It is not a job of one's choice. For some people, this is coming as a bit of a shock to them. Instead of just being offered a cycle of training and schemes, they are now being told that there is a job there for them. However, I believe it is something that is going to work. There will be a review of it, of course, but it is early days yet to be doing reviews. We need to see the long-term analysis.
