I have a question on the same point. It is about the lock-in. When the delegates are managing multiple schemes within the local employment service, do they have flexibility which enables them to say there is a different scheme or project if a certain scheme or project is not working for a person? The person-centred approach is key. Are there people who come back after one year away from an appropriate scheme in which they have been set back a little? The loss of a year can be significant.

What are the links with the back-to-education scheme? How are routes back to education managed within the services? How could it be managed differently than from JobPath?
